Nord designs educational buildings which meet the evolving standards and needs of learning in the 21st century. The traditional classrooms are being rethought to meet new modes of teaching and learning that enforce collaboration, critical thinking, and technological integration.
Whether the building is new, or it is an update of an existing learning environment, the architectural framework should be flexible and innovative. It is essential that we innovate our current learning environments to ensure that students experience future-proof learning that prepares them for the world outside the classrooms.
We design tailor-made schools, universities, and campuses in close dialogue with the client and users. The specific user demands and visions constitute the programmatic outset to make learning, teaching and research patterns perform in the best possible way.
Contemporary schools and education environments can be designed as flexible and based on sharing square meters to emphasize multi use and the optimization of building costs. Learning environments can also become an active part of the local environment where it’s a space for interaction, innovation and mixed use open for the public.
Nord designs inspirational learning landscapes that align with the innovation goals and the client’s pedagogical aims.
