Abstract

A modern school should first of all be a place for gatherings and communication between pupils. It should be a place that shapes new social and aesthetic habits. School architecture has to enable the acquisition of new experience; it has to provoke questioning about already uncovered as well as new knowledge. Furthermore, it has to continuously offer creative space relationships within the building itself. Form, concept and architectural elements can only be the consequence of an intense relationship between the previously mentioned elements and a specific local context such as location, climate, place or social movements.
