Abstract
For some time now, school buildings have represented an important field
in architecture, and there is an enduring interest in the challenges
this design task presents. This publication explains in ten chapters the
central parameters for this architectural typology: the role of the
school in the community or neighborhood, questions of sustainability,
flexible spaces for learning, suitable furniture, processes of
participation in the design, learning outside of the classroom,
landscape design, the opportunities in and challenges for special
schools, schools in the urban fabric, and the role of new pedagogical
concepts. Each theme is illuminated from a variety of cultural
perspectives and illustrated with numerous realized buildings as model
solutions for the given aspect. A guest commentary by an architect
experienced in designing school buildings concludes each chapter.
