1993 jury commentary

  • Planning issues: The plan must be student-centered and teacher-driven and must incorporate community use of the facility without interfering with the academic functions. There must be strong evidence of the educational program within the overall plan. The plan must be flexible, incorporating wiring for technology, as well as including a variety of spaces to meet the diverse needs of students.

  • Design objectives: the use of natural light; creation of usable and memorable outside spaces; the quality of the instructional spaces; effective use of materials and colors to create a mood or setting; scale and proportion of the design in relationship to users; image the facility projects and its reflection on the local culture and age of the child; flow of the building from outside to inside.

  • Creative and effective use of resources: effective energy use; environmentally sustainable architecture; design coordination of equipment and furnishings with the building; amount of money spent on the facility and its cost-effectiveness; inclusion of an appropriate infrastructure and wiring to accommodate computers and telecommunications; consideration for long-term maintenance and the quality of interior materials; the ability to meet the needs of all students; security and handicapped access.

Essential Reading

The Subtle Stuff

Vikas Nagardeolekar and Edwin Merritt

Michael McKeon and Lincoln Berry

When acoustics are mentioned with regard to schools, many people first think of performing arts.

Making it Readable

Peter Gisolfi

When my daughter was 10 years old, she left the comfort of her elementary school for the unfamiliar territory of the middle/high school building — a crazy quilt of pieces from the 1910s, 1930s, 1960s and 1970s.

Echo Boom Impact

Phillipe Dordai and Joseph Rizzo

Like their baby-boomer parents, the echo-boom generation is reshaping the college and university landscape.
