Revitalizing Cities Through Vertical Education

Abstract

Throughout the years, public educational institutions have taught students from a young age various subjects without changing the learning structure or environment. On the other hand, recent global events such as the Covid virus have led office spaces to be used less by businesses. This thesis proposes the adaptive reuse of existing office space to redesign it as a school to create a better environment for enhanced learning by designing effective bioclimatic, sustainable, and interactive specialized programming spaces that work in an urban environment to create a better learning environment for students and faculty while addressing safety and other urban concerns.
