Kellee Frith an in-house consultant for architectural practice Architectus, working as an education environments strategist. Kellee is passionately interested in education and the ways that people learn and teach. In particular, she wants to know how the design of physical learning environments can positively influence the learning experience and teaching practice. Kellee works closely with students, teachers and school communities to understand the kind of spaces and settings required to support them.
Kellee’s strategic practice is underpinned by doctoral research that examines the potential of interior design to support the development of new cultures of learning and teaching in primary school learning. A central finding of her research is the understanding that teachers want and need specialist training and development to help them recognize and exploit the potential of new learning environments, supporting contemporary education practice.
