Educational spaces for children have certainly evolved through the years, yet today the search to understand the processes involved in learning and teaching – including the role of the physical environment – is progressing like never before. The resurgence in recent years that the design of quality spaces for both learning and play has experienced is tied with advances in technology and an increase in cross-disciplinary inputs in architecture. This special issue looks at sixteen recent examples at the forefront of new concepts in spaces for children, including works by Mario Cucinella, Feld72, PAL Design Group, KLab Architecture, Tezuka Architects, Omgeving + Carve, and more.
