SPACES TO AFFECT LEARNING

Provide the physical environment in which learning is supported and enhanced.

Function to Form

EXPERIMENTAL: The character and relationships of the spaces allow the users to conceive of and try new ways of doing things while discovering and integrating the unexpected.

EXHILARATING: The elements of the physical space create a powerful positive emotional response and build powerful individual expectations.
