Education

The landscape of third-level education is changing and, with it, its literal architectural landscape. Flexible learning requires flexible spatial solutions.

Schoolchildren have a greater chance of excelling in architecture that excels. Our latest survey of school projects from around the globe shows how it's done.

BIM technology is able to feed 3D technologies with a whole range of additional intelligent information – which opens up numerous new possibilities in the field of visualisation. At BIM World MUNICH this year, you’ll be able to see three

At BIM World MUNICH on 26 and 27 November, more than 200 exhibitors – established companies and start-ups alike – will present the latest tools and technologies for digitising the construction and real estate industries.

Design-led kindergartens aren't just places for storing kids. They're cleverly conceived spaces that support development through play and interaction.

Libraries are turning the page and entering the post-digital age with help from architect-led designs that revitalise and reactive their civic value.

A shift in the classic classroom dynamic has occurred and architects have taken note, designing schools that are ready to respond to the future with a mind toward sustainability and more room for creativity.
