Schools for the Future Design Proposals from Architectural Psychology

An essential resource for all those involved in planning and running schools.

Architecture and its relationship to its users have a significant influence on life and activities within the built environment.
Following an overview of the historical development of school buildings in different countries, international experts discuss how buildings can work with users'' creative responses to result in environments that are "alive." The relationship between buildings and users is analyzed from the point of view of architectural psychology and emerging considerations such as information technology.
This book includes descriptions and numerous photographs of 23 innovative schools from 11 countries.
