LEARNING CAN HAPPEN ANYWHERE

摘要

Learning Objective One-Identify how education architecture can enhance sustain-ability, ecological design, and innovation through space planning and site design. We will explore two case studies of replacement schools in the Pacific Northwest-Cherry Crest Elementary and Riverview Elementary. The design of both schools embodies the concept of 21st Century Learning and the idea that learning can happen anywhere. Together, these projects tell a story of sustainability, ecological design and innovation in education architecture. The architecture firm on both projects was the Seattle office of NAC|Architecture. As a leading designer of educational facilities for more than 30 years, NAC|Architecture has completed over 160 major PK-12 school projects for 60-plus school districts. The total value of that construction exceeds $1 billion.
