A Study on the Design Characteristics of Elementary Education Space for the Realization of Creative Space: Focusing on the classroom space of the Daegu Elementary Future Education Renovation Project

Abstract

At a time when changes in the educational environment in preparation for a changing future society are becoming an important issue, spatial innovation projects are spreading nationwide for educational facilities. In particular, the core of the project is not to improve facilities led by suppliers and experts, but to create a space centered on user participation. This study focused on the 2018 project of the Daegu Elementary Future Education Renovation Project, which is part of the school space innovation project. First, the research method identifies the importance of the physical environment to enhance creative capabilities and extracts the characteristic elements thatmake up the creative space. Second, the changed spatial design elements were identified through case analysis, and third, the design characteristics of the educational space were identified to support creative education through the design characteristics analysis of the creative educational space. Furthermore, the educational space of this study could be classified into five types: PV, PO, PF, VF, and VCo. Playful activitieswith various experienceswere themain requirements and the design characteristicswere reflected.
