What’s Ahead at EDspaces 2025: Designing for Flexibility, Sustainability, and Inclusive Learning
As EDspaces in Columbus, Ohio draws near, it’s shaping up to be a powerful convergence of educators, architects, designers, manufacturers, and facility planners, all working together to imagine and build the next generation of learning spaces. This year, we’re especially excited to see how emerging trends around flexible classrooms, sustainability, inclusion, and technology will come alive. Here’s what we expect—and what we can’t wait to explore.
1. Flexible Classrooms for All Learners
One of the biggest themes this year is flexibility. We’ll see more “Designed Learning Spaces” that are fully interactive and adaptable :furniture, layout, lighting, and technology all shifting to support varied learners—those who thrive in small groups, those who need quiet zones, and those for whom movement aids focus.
“HyFlex” and blended learning models are also coming into focus. Spaces that seamlessly support hybrid learners, mixing remote and in-person students, are a design imperative. AV/IT tools, wireless presentation, multiple camera systems, and smart acoustics are all part of the conversation.
2. Sustainability and Well-Being
Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword; it’s essential. Expect to see more products and designs that reduce environmental impact (through materials, energy, and lifecycle thinking), as well as designs that support comfort, health, and well-being. Natural light, biophilic design, air quality, and materials that are durable and low in toxic emissions will all be major talking points.
Well-being connects with inclusion—spaces designed for neurodiversity, sensory needs, adaptability of furniture—so that every learner feels supported. Flexible seating, quiet breakout zones, and acoustic design shouldn't be afterthoughts.
3. Technology-Enhanced Environments
Technology continues to evolve quickly, and at EDspaces 2025we anticipate seeing a strong push toward smarter, more integrated AV, immersive learning tools (AR/VR), AI-enabled systems, and tools that scale. These aren’t just “nice to have”—they’ll be essential for hybrid/hyflex model sand for supporting learning by doing, collaboration, and experimentation.
Also, procurement and operations will increasingly weigh total lifecycle costs, ease of maintenance, and flexibility of technology systems to adapt over time. The future-ready classroom is one that can evolve as pedagogy changes.
4. Safety, Security & Ethical Design
Co-located with the Campus Safety Conference, EDspaces will lean into the intersection of design and security: physical safety, mental health, and creating spaces that protect while also welcoming.
We expect conversations around data privacy (especially given more tech in classrooms), acoustic privacy, spatial layout to provide safe sightlines, and design that supports circulation and evacuation without compromising aesthetics or warmth.
5. Procurement and Collaboration
From what the show materials suggest, procurement professionals will be sharing more about how to source sustainably, how to partner with manufacturers who offer adaptable/flexible products, and how to include teachers, students, and community voices in design decisions.
Conclusion
EDspaces 2025 promises to be a rich showcase of how we can reimagine learning environments to be more flexible, sustainable, inclusive, and tech-forward. Whether you are a designer, educator, facility manager, or someone passionate about the future of learning, this is one event not to miss.
