About
Syllasense emerged in 2015 from the visionary mind of Lee-Ann, a Kindergarten teacher driven by a passion for revolutionizing how children learn to read. Dissatisfied with the limitations of Whole Language methods and the uninspiring nature of leveled readers, Lee-Ann embarked on creating a groundbreaking series of decodable books. Her innovative approach centered around “closed syllable” words to ensure the use of short vowel sounds, aiming to craft stories that were not only educational but also deeply engaging for young readers. The evolution of Syllasense saw the introduction of the Purple Series and the revitalization of the Green Series with multicultural illustrations, reflecting the company’s commitment to diversity and inclusivity. In 2022, Lee-Ann’s relentless pursuit of excellence led to a comprehensive reprint of 50 titles, signifying a new chapter in the company’s journey and underscoring its growth and evolving educational philosophy.
Our Goal
The expansion of Syllasense necessitated the creation of a new office space that mirrored the vibrant and dynamic spirit of its books. The design challenge was met with an imaginative approach, focusing on the creative use of materials and colors to craft a workspace that was as unique and inviting as the stories Syllasense brought to life.
