Developing Adaptive Educational Spaces Through a Theoretical Framework Based on Modularity and Digital Design
摘要
As education undergoes significant transformations, conventional building designs have limitations accommodating evolving needs. Encountering retrofitting complexities, resistance to change, inflexible structures, resource constraints, and underutilized spaces can impede the implementation of essential changes in educational infrastructure, potentially resulting in obsolescence. Also, Addressing the limitations of conventional building designs in the face of evolving education involves prioritizing adaptable design principles, leveraging digital technology, fostering community integration, emphasizing sustainability, and encouraging ongoing innovation. This study proposes a theoretical framework to create adaptable educational facades and spaces. Adaptable infrastructures are designed using the Design Science Research (DSR) methodology. The methodology of this paper consists of the following steps: developing a theoretical framework involves identifying relevant theories and concepts and then illustrating relationships with a conceptual model. After that, an operationalized framework design transforms a theoretical framework into a simulation artifact. Through using kinematics and parametric design, the research illustrates how designers can create dynamic learning environments. It provides significant visions into the mechanisms that facilitate this integration, including modularity, flexible junctions, and the crucial role of digital design in enhancing adaptability and controlling transparency. In achieving these objectives, the research aims to provide a comprehensive framework for advancing adaptable wall screens. The Adaptable Learning Center improves dynamic learning environments with modularity and digital methodologies. In addition to education, it facilitates diverse local activities. The flexible design of this product emphasizes sustainability and operational efficiency through digital enhancements and modular features. The research presents a framework emphasizing modularity, digital design, and adaptability in shaping future educational architecture through nature-inspired mechanisms.
