Book Synopsis
Translating contemporary pedagogical concepts into compelling and very diverse architectural solutions.
Today, schools are far more than just places of learning. They have evolved into living spaces for children and adolescents, offering extensive social functions and extracurricular activities. This shift toward diverse educational and societal roles has fundamentally transformed the architecture of school buildings and grounds.
Spaces for Learning presents international examples that show how functionality, sustainability, and compelling design can create innovative educational environments. Featuring projects from elementary to secondary schools, the book reveals how architecture and pedagogy can merge in contemporary and high-quality ways. The selection provides an inspiring look into the new worlds of open, diverse, and future-oriented learning.
