The construction, expansion or conversion of schools is a current topic that represents a lucrative construction task, but also brings new challenges. Usage options for digital media must find their way into the architecture as well as the aspect of sustainability, which is becoming increasingly important. The creation of a pleasant learning or working environment and the consideration of modern pedagogical concepts are further main tasks of architecture and design. The external appearance of the building is also of great importance. The school building should fit into the urban context both practically – through good access – and aesthetically, or even shape the surroundings as a new center.

„Schulen – Bauten für die Allgemeinbildung“ presents individual solutions of architects and designers who are intensively engaged in the educational building of today.

This book shows 60 exemplary designed buildings and interiors, which are well suited for learning.
