This is the standard design guide on schools architecture,
providing vital information on school architecture.
Mark Dudek views school building design as a particularly
specialised field encompassing ever changing educational theories,
the subtle spatial and psychological requirements of growing
children and practical issues that are unique to these types of
building.
He explores the functional requirements of individual spaces, such
as classrooms, and shows how their incorporation within a single
institution area are a defining characteristic of the effective
educational environment.
Acoustics, impact damage, the functional differentiation of
spaces such as classrooms, music rooms, craft activities and
gymnasium, within a single institution are all dealt with. More
esoteric factors such as the effects on behaviour of colour, light,
surface texture and imagery are considered in addition to the more
practical aspects of designing for comfort and health.
Chapter 4 comprises 20 case studies which address those issues
important in the creation of modern school settings. They are state
of the art examples from all parts of the world. These examples
include: Pokstown Down Primary, Bournemouth; Haute Vallee School,
Jersey; Heinz-Galinski School, Berlin; Anne Frank School,
Papendract, Netherlands; Seabird Island School, British Columbia
and The Little Village Academy, Chicago.
