Espaços saudáveis para o ensino e aprendizagem: projeto de uma escola infantil em Curitiba

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic rescues reflections on the role of architecture in the health and well-being of human beings, which leads to considering aspects of a healthy building in architectural projects with an emphasis on school architecture in early childhood education whose users are children who have greater vulnerabilities in relation to adults. In this sense, the present work proposes to present the requirements that characterize a healthy building and the pertinent design strategies applied in school architecture. For that, bibliographical researches and surveys were carried out and the data treatments were carried out in a qualitative way. The main conclusions point out that, in addition to influencing users’ health and well-being, the characteristics of healthy buildings within schools can also influence children’s learning and development.
