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.
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" !
