3.2.2 Architecture workshop for high talented children: Experience and method
The presenter will share the experience of working with highly talented children in the Architecture Workshop. The Architecture Workshop encourages playfulness, creativity, imagination, fun, spontaneity, empathy, and the development of personal relationships. The lived space is more than the physical space. A place, a square, a street, a building, trees, light, people, etc., give a frame and articulate structure. Architecture Workshops insist on the creation of own and shared spaces, where vision, smell, and touch generate other dimensions.
