Architecture for Learning

What is learning?

1. The acquisition of knowledge or skills through experience, practice, or study, or by being taught.

The previous statement is a traditional definition of what "Learning" means, however the idea of "Learning" can be interpreted in different ways. To me, learning is about:
- Breaking down Boundaries
- Experiencing new things
- Allowing oneself to be exposed to new ideas
- An open mind
- Exploration
- Discovery
- Encounter
- Tangents, Overlays, Links, Webs, Patterns

The following video showcases examples of Architecture for Learning. The idea that a building itself can become a teacher was a notion that resonated with my thoughts about learning, and is a concept that could be explored in the design of the Folie.
