Learn for Life - New Architecture for New Learning - Beau Livre

Learn for life is a diverse collection of inspiring architecture and interiors that support progressive models of acquiring knowledge. New interpretations of kindergartens, schools, universities, libraries, and educational centers are featured along with architecturally innovative offices, conference rooms, and laboratories. These examples are rounded out by more experimental projects or temporary installations that offer further perspectives on the rapidly evolving topic of how best to learn in the new millennium.
Built in an age when a vast amount of information is now readily accessible online and traditional lecture-style teaching is lost on our shortened attention spans, the groundbreaking spaces documented here promote learning by inspiring us, providing us with helpful tools, and facilitating opportunities for productive cooperation and the exchange of ideas within groups. In short, the work presented in Learn for Life makes clear that the creative use of architecture and interior design not only provides a new physical framework for acquiring knowledge, but also revitalizes and advances the process of learning as a whole.
