Unfortunately the current dominant learning space typology disregards this, opting for ‘one size fits all’ learning spaces that actually don’t fit anyone while still expecting all students to perform to the best of their abilities. This project thus investigates alternatives to the current dominant learning space typology in order to identify and develop an alternative that is more appropriate for the times in which we live as well as the diverse variety of students that are being accommodated in contemporary tertiary learning institutions. This is especially pertinent in 2021, since COVID-19 has caused educational spaces to be reconsidered in ways and to an extent that is unprecedented in recent decades, giving alternative approaches a valuable opportunity to enter into the general discussion. Subsequently this project proposes a tertiary learning institution that enables idiosyncratic learning experiences by placing specific emphasis on creating spaces that celebrate individualism and equity by enabling students to learn in spaces that cater to their individual spatial needs and preferences. Because every student deserves to learn in a space that complements and promotes their ideal learning experience. mi2026 Architecture MArch (Prof) Unrestricted SDG-04: Quality education SDG-08: Decent work and economic growth SDG-09: Industry, innovation and infrastructure SDG-10: Reduced inequalities 2022-02-14T13:50:18Z 2022-02-14T13:50:18Z 2022-05-18 2021 Mini Dissertation * S2021 A2022 http://hdl.handle.net/2263/83900 en © 2022 University of Pretoria.
