Do you know if the effect of these designs were later analysed on the users of the spaces?
I would like to evaluate existing urban green areas (e.g. schoolyards, playgrounds, botanical gardens, etc) to see if and how they are contributing to the goals of environmental education. It would be useful to see designes that were already done in this spirit. Thank you!
Thank you, it is a really interesting detail and I will definitely consider including this in my research! If you could send me some links it would be great! :)
Hello, since you ask about school and playground, the Fuji kindergarten built in 2007 is a famous example in Japan which show how architecture can promote children's behaviour. Ecology is not the main focus here, but I think it could be used a nice starting point for any related project.
The architect Takaharu Tezuka even did a TED talk in which they show how the building contributed to the emancipation of children:

I know some example in Germany, they did implement some projects like putting solar planel on roofs top, greening, small garden. This all include students so that they get education on environmental issues......you can search on City Frankfurt....
