Raising a School: Foundations for School Architecture

Meer over het boek

The book argues that school architecture profoundly influences the educational experience, often more than the curriculum itself. It critiques the inadequate design of existing schools, highlighting issues like poor lighting, uncomfortable furniture, and lack of green spaces, which diminish the vitality of learning environments. With a significant increase in school construction underway, the author advocates for a radical rethinking of school design to better reflect societal values and foster lifelong passions, connecting education with the arts, nature, and personal interests.
