TICADLOVO. INTERACTIVE-EDUCATIONAL ZONE
topic: NITRA ON 7 HILLS
place: TIC Nitra, Štefánikova tr.1, Nitra
area: 20m²
opening of the zone: 02/2023
The assignment of TIC Nitra was to create an interactive space, where the interesting things of the city of Nitra, its surroundings and nature would be presented in a playful way, not only for primary school students, but also for residents and visitors of all age categories.
We transformed a passable, relatively small, rarely used and poorly lit room into a multifunctional, graphically and motorically stimulating space. Graphically designed wall elements are arranged around the perimeter of the room, which allowed to leave a central space for workshops and screening seating. The wall elements serve as storage spaces for folding tables, seating pads, drawing aids and touch monitors and a projector are built into them.
The theme "NITRA ON 7 HILLS", with which TIC has been working for several years, allowed us to develop the concept of "surrounding the visitor with Nitra" using map materials. We are convinced that in this way visitors can better understand the layout of the city in the country and their orientation in the city will also improve. The illustrated map of 7 hills in a playful comic form carries information about Nitra at different height levels of perception. For small children, there are moving and rotating elements in the lower level, older children can attach themed magnets and tell stories through them together with the lecturers. Interactive monitors, magnets, funny pictures and texts teach children about interesting people, legends and corners in Nitra in a playful way. The wall and playing elements are made of plywood and solid wood, a material that is pleasant to the touch. The illustrations are printed on plywood by large-scale printing.
