Pillsbury Elementary School benefits from Target School Library Makeover Program

The Target School Library Makeover program has been an exciting and rewarding project to be a part of and watching the Pillsbury Elementary School library transformation was amazing. This year, we were responsible for the design of 6 of the 42 libraries that will be completed in 2011, 4 out of the Minneapolis office, 1 in Arizona, and 1 in Madison. We have been involved on the flooring and furniture ordering side of the project from the start.

QR Codes on Leap Seating

QR Code on Steelcase LeapSteelcase creates high performance seating products that can improve the health and productivity of millions of office workers – if they are properly adjusted. The chairs are shipped with hang tags and have diagrams underneath the arm caps, which aid them in learning how to adjust the chair, but tags are quickly removed and diagrams are sometimes overlooked.

To further promote workplace well being, Steelcase is adding QR codes to the diagrams on the arms of its leading seating products. These QR codes will invite users to scan them and will lead to interactive videos, enabling users to see how their chair can be easily adjusted.
