Center for Children With Special Needs: Investigating Architectural Design Through a Child's Perception of Place
View/ Open
Abstract
Embodying energy, emotion and youthfulness, children are a delicate and sensitive part
of our communities. Unfortunately because of their size and growing immune systems,
when faced with illness children tend to need special attention in order to regain their
bodies balance and health. Therefore, developing a building and creating a special
environment for children to recover in is an important feature to the Fargo community.
The building[s] will need to encompass the children's creative thoughts and ideals,
sustaining a typology which will support and nurture their time of healing and recovery.
