During our course RESEARCH with teenagers, we explore the connection between architecture and people's lives. In one of the recent classes, we examined the relationship between food and the city. How does the cultivation, processing, and sale of food impact the life and landscape of cities and countries? What is the legal status of agriculture in a global context? One of the case studies we discussed was the Spanish Pavilion at the 2023 Architecture Biennale in Venice, titled "FOODSCAPES." It's during adolescence that students begin to show interest in and delve into serious issues, and we aim to unpack these topics, highlight their diversity, and show how architects address them. #architecturalthinking #architecturaleducation #architecturalthinkingschool #architectureforteens
Architectural Thinking School for Children
Gestão educacional
private supplementary education institution with an innovative approach to learning
Sobre nós
The Architectural Thinking School for Children is a think tank composed of children and an interdisciplinary team of professionals. It operates at the intersection of experimental pedagogy and a wide range of disciplines, using architectural thinking as a tool to promote children as full-fledged participants in the intellectual and artistic adult world. The School was founded in 2016 by the architect Alexander Novikov and the art critic and designer Elena Karpilova, as an institution of supplementary education. The school is located in Lisbon, Portugal. The Architectural Thinking School for Children teaches architectural thinking as a tool for understanding the modern global world. We took the architect's work as a model, since they possess a huge range of knowledge and skills: they are good at conducting research, using knowledge from completely different disciplines, creating projects, and presenting them to the public. The systems thinking possessed by a professional architect is what we call architectural thinking. The school has more than 16 studios: architecture, contemporary art, sculpture, object design, journalism, graphic design, psychology, biology, sociology, political science, economics, etc. Classes relating to all of the studios take place within one common, interdisciplinary program of study and are conducted by expert practitioners in the relevant fields. The school program is designed for 7 years of study and is organized in accordance with the principle of “one year, one course”. School courses: “Development”, “Systems Thinking”, “Interdisciplinarity-1, 2”, “City Research”, and “Professions-1, 2”. Each course is divided into four quarters. During each of the quarters, the student completes classes in different studios and, in the end, creates one final project: a book, a film, a map of the city, etc.

How to see from the different angle? This quarter we’re working on Cinema creating our movies. This is traditional and one of the favourite topic, the Cinema quarter was developed and created in our school 8 years ago, in 2016, and each year we go through the number of disciplines to create together with our little students movies on important topic, from ecology to equality. #architecturalthinkingschool #architecturalthinking #architecturaleducation
