Designing School Gardens for All

Urban Farm DB summary

A 2017 paper documents the design process of a school garden in Yenipazar district, Aydın province, Turkey, created through collaboration between teachers and students. It argues that a school garden should be simply designed and meet users' needs, guiding children's play, fun, and learning while building creativity and teamwork, and that design should be a collective product of designers and users rather than the designer alone. It presents the full design process, including detailed design, perspective drawings, and an animated film.
