School Of Stores imagines home improvement as more than kitchens, bathrooms, and décor. A home can become a place for exploration, play, nature, science, and advanced technology: an aquarium can bring aquatic life into everyday view; a telescope or planetarium room can open the night sky; binoculars, bird feeders, butterflies, bees, and potential home beekeeping can turn a yard or neighborhood walk into a study of natural flight and its connections to aerospace; a backyard playground can create a personal attraction environment; and increasingly powerful computers could bring supercomputer-class capabilities into the home, car, or even a portable briefcase. Across Launchpads A, B, E, and F, these ideas explore how experiences associated with museums, aquariums, observatories, attractions, laboratories, and computing centers might increasingly become part of everyday life at home.
