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 by 30 of the most relevant architects of the world. These
projects aim to create imaginative and evocative atmospheres. Many
of these spaces also serve as meeting places for the local
community. Another important aspect is environmental
'intelligence', with energy saving systems, passive house standards
and light optimization 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
in this book are well presented with clear text, plans and
photographs. The book takes a close look at technological and
ecological installations such as solar panels, tanks for rainwater
collection and the recycling of materials.
