The book's aim is to build a reference architectural structure in the
scope of educations spaces. It retraces the evolution of architectural
spaces for education, focusing on the deep connections between the ideas
behind the pedagogic approaches and their architectural materialization.
Schools, academies and their historical references, have usually been
conceived as the space built upon the representation of a specific
pedagogic model. With the historical rise of the intangible ways of
transmitting knowledge, it is extremely important today to reshape the
architectural design of these spaces in order to meet contemporary
needs.
