More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Human development during childhood and adolescence is particularly important, and the quality of the spaces where it takes place can be highly influential in a delicate process. Numerous studies explore the effects of architecture on children's behaviour and have their effect on the design of educational establishments. This book gathers a selection of schools and nurseries that aim to create imaginative and evocative atmospheres. 30 projects are included, many of them also serving as meeting places for the local community. Another important aspect is environmental 'intelligence', with energy saving systems, passive house standards and light optimisation all factors that come into play. From the astronomy 'classroom of the future' in west London to a bubble-structured nursery in Japan, the forward-thinking projects herein are well presented with clear text, plans and photos.

Format:Paperback
a waist of money . you can see many schools and kindergartens in the website of archDAILY but for a person who want to know and something more (for an architect and not just for the interior designer )of the meaning of a place for the childs there are much better books. for example ..''space and learning'' of Herman Herzberger .an architect who i had the luck to have conversation with him ,in Greece ,2010 , when it comes for a lecture about the schools, this architect is a grand master of the spirit of this places. another one very good book is the ''schools and kindergartens a design manual '' of Birkhauser edition
