Growth in Time and Space·Emotion and Warmth — An Artistic Architectural Space for Preventing School Violence

Introduction

Globally, school violence and bullying affect countless children and adolescents. It is estimated that approximately 246 million children and teenagers experience some form of violence or bullying each year. These figures not only highlight the prevalence of the issue but also underscore the importance of addressing this social challenge. To create a safer and more inclusive learning environment, we have proposed the innovative project "Growth in Time and Space: Emotion and Warmth."

This is not just an architectural endeavor; it is a commitment to building a space filled with care and understanding, where every child can feel accepted and supported, thus fostering healthy growth.
