English academy: interior design, construction and cost estimates

Hello! I'm Ham Young-ju, a designer at Goodterior :)

This project is a small English academy in the 20 pyeong range in Gangdong-gu. The director wanted to use the limited floor area as efficiently as possible to accommodate more students.

We used clean white finishes to make the interior feel larger, adding warm timber-toned doors and fluted panels for a comfortable, welcoming study environment.

To avoid a confined feeling in the corridor and classrooms, we focused on opening sightlines with glass partitions and internal windows.

Let's explore the academy's efficient layout.

  • Area: 88.93m² (26.9 pyeong)
  • Use: English academy
  • Layout: An efficient classroom-focused arrangement to maximize student capacity
  • Fire safety: Inspect facilities against academy licensing requirements and supplement as needed
  • Sound insulation: Walls and doors are required to reduce noise between classrooms

Floor plan

This plan shows the overall layout of the small English academy in the 20 pyeong range. The project focuses on efficient divisions to accommodate as many students as possible within a limited area.The entrance, consultation area, and classrooms are carefully arranged along the corridor, clearly separating study areas from circulation so students can concentrate comfortably.

Director's office and consultation room
Located closest to the entrance, this room offers a convenient route for visiting parents.
A full glass wall facing the corridor makes the interior feel larger and lets the director easily oversee the academy.

Classrooms
Three similarly sized classrooms sit side by side to use the limited area efficiently and accommodate as many students as possible.
Each room has a window facing the corridor to reduce enclosure and create a comfortable setting for focused lessons.

Corridor and break area
A counter-style table along the corridor gives students a place to wait briefly and parents a comfortable place to sit.

Pantry
A compact, separate pantry at the back provides teachers with space for lesson preparation and breaks.

With the layout explained, let's look at the design concept.

Design

Efficient divisions are essential in a small academy in the 20 pyeong range.We arranged the consultation room and classrooms around the corridor. Glass partitions around the consultation room keep the compact interior from feeling confined.Large internal classroom windows allow views of students studying and make the space feel open.A white base with beige doors and fluted panels adds warmth and comfort.

Notes

The central request was to accommodate as many students as possible in a small English academy in the 20 pyeong range without making it feel cramped.

To keep the narrow corridor from feeling confined, we used glass partitions for the consultation room and large internal classroom windows to open sightlines.

White finishes make the interior feel larger, while timber-toned doors and fluted panels bring warmth to areas that might otherwise feel cold.

The result is an English academy that uses its limited area efficiently while giving students a comfortable place to study.

Please leave an inquiry if you have any questions. We'll be happy to help :)
