About Architecture in Education

The most effective way to make children and youth more conscious and responsible for their surrounding architecture and environment, is to give them a chance through their growing-up time to participate in planning processes and projects that will have a direct and concrete influence on their daily surroundings. This chance to be involved in changing and creating new and better environments should be given them on the most actual arena: their school!

Child Friendly Landscape

Do more thoroughly studies on how children move in the natural landscape, trying to conquer it and interact with it. Research on their movements in the natural places where they have free playspace, a rich "topography" and rich "structures". Research more on how children shape their own environment and create new frames in the nature. This gives us a better ground to develope more child-friendly places and spaces.

School as An Imprintable and Flexible Workshop 2 3 4 5

How can we develope a school-architecture where "the content" (pedagogically content) shapes "the form" (architectural forms), both in the project-period, and continuously? From the start-up seems difficult with todays conventional architect competitions. We need competitions on different levels, starting with idea-competitions introducing a new "pattern language" for the school, Future Schools in Denmark- competition 2 3 , before we are giving away the work to one or two architect offices. We also need to develope a real dialogue and tools for commuication that works. ("Pattern language" - Christopher Alexander, "mønster-språk). Continuously reshaping and imprinting the spaces seems possible, when architects behave more pedagogical consciously and create the school more like a living workshop, - more imprintable and a little less ceremonious.We need living workshops, - both inside and outside, and a flexible architecture allowing it.

Perhaps the most important element in the school is a school bus,- to interact and make easier the direct contact with local societies, or for he same reason: a well-equipped workshp to fix bicycles. F.Svane.

Real Need for Personal Space 2

Always remember the real need for "personal space", in the interiors and in the landscape. Why do we have so much graffiti in the suburbs and the cities, where children and young ones never have planted a plant, and never get materials enough? They never have a real chance to create any frames of their own. "Why is this so difficult in the cities?" GUIC. Always have in mind the personal architecture of our own culture in contradiction to the anonymity of the suburbs, - and the personal architecture of other cultures, for instance in Ndebele Ndebele1 2 their "house-grafitti" Ndebele 3 - their "sculptures" and "self-made houses"! Reflect more on what architects and politicians are doing, by creating the emptiness of the suburbs! Never in our culture have so few planned so much for so many at such short time! Go for more "anti-architecture", - more "participation", "influence" and "personal space" !
