One idea I had for a storage or learning station. The whole thing can be dismantled and wheeled about, reconfigured, but it basically consists of a center post surrounded on which is mounted an adjustable mount for a computer monitor, a shelf for some specimens, maybe some drawers underneath. Up top would be some lights to light everything up and some text information in the form of posters. The posters could also hide some sound baffles to keep things quite in the lab.
This was Matt's sweet teaching area. I believe he can comment more on his ideas about "creating rooms without walls" in which to teach. This is, correct me if I'm wrong, an area with a demonstration table in the middle. Above the demo table is a doc camera and some nice monitors, plus some nice lighting. Surrounding that demo area are triangular tables that seem to double/triple as their own demonstration tables, tables to sit at while watching the main demo, and storage for specimens. Everything is clearly marked regarding what system it is so it's easy to find.
I don't really remember this one. This seems a long-ish table with some glass shelves beneath it and a round demo area on the end. I like the idea of the glass shelves beneath it, particularly if you can see through the other side, means things are easy to see, well and naturally lit etc. You still have to bend over to see them though, which, if you're tall like me, is not so good. For example, I have no idea what is on the bottom shelf of my fridge at home - I never bend over to look. This one has a document camera too, Obviously the doc cams are pretty popular.
I think this one came from the far side of the table. It has the whole body dissection in the middle and refers to individual systems surrounding it
Oh me. I don't seem able to get off the alcove thing. Again this is my alcove, but from a different view. I've put a whole cadaver cart in there, plus more of the same.
Another neat design by Matt for a curvey table to teach at. Got some storage, got some shelves, got some overhead cameras, got some squiggly people.
