Softer Ambiance

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I selected these items to create a more welcoming, organized, and student-friendly space. The plant décor adds a calming touch, helping to create a peaceful environment where students can feel more at ease. The cell phone stand allows me to stay hands-free and focused during meetings or calls, making sure I’m fully present for students when they need support. The desk organizer keeps all my materials neat and accessible, which helps me stay efficient and ready to assist students without distractions. The dimmable lamp lets me adjust the lighting to match the mood—brighter for study sessions or softer for one-on-one conversations—helping set the right tone for any interaction.

Together, these small additions make the space more inviting, less stressful, and better suited to supporting the needs of my students.
