Over the past fifteen years, Austria has seen the emergence of numerous educational buildings that provide fresh impulses for new learning environments beyond the traditional corridor school layout. This development is the result of joint efforts by stakeholders in pedagogy, architecture, and public administration to adapt learning spaces to contemporary educational approaches and to activate space as a "third teacher." This book presents 50 outstanding examples and, through essays and conversations, reflects on the contexts and conditions of their creation. It is aimed in particular at educators and architects who seek to create better learning environments and are looking for a shared foundation to do so.
