Thesis (M. Arch.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 1980. / MICROFICHE COPY AVAILABLE IN ARCHIVES AND ROTCH. / Bibliography: p. 105-111. / This thesis looks at the need for privacy in the general instructional areas of an elementary school, with the role of the architect in mind. Taking off from the open-plan school, the most recent trend in educational architecture, a case is made for building a range of private places in the school environment. A review of the literature provides a look at behavioral and environmental research on privacy, as well as background information on educational and school design issues. An investigation of a handful of schools in the Boston area gives a description of how the class spaces are used, and uncovers shortcomings and strengths of the buildings. Finally, this information is used to draw some conclusions about how the physical form can provide the necessary privacy. These conclusions are interpreted into design ideas. In focusing on the issue of privacy, several other peripheral issues such a s flexibility and educational philosophy are dealt with. Enclosure and access, issues that bear directly on privacy are discussed. It is concluded that more enclosure than has been provided in open-plan schools is needed on the grounds that more enclosure supports rather than inhibits the activities taking place in a school. / by Philip Pipal. / M.Arch.

This thesis is about the making of places by proposing a community of parts. My vision is to celebrate individual elements while giving a sense of order and a sense of whole. Connections are shaped by functional and structural concerns. The pieces form a place where the community of building parts is reflective of the community of school. The search for an architecture whose order is not dominated by simplistic hierarchy, but through the act of layering spaces and the repetition of structure, has been my greatest challenge. I believe a building with structural harmony will help bring a sense of balance to those who use it. / Master of Architecture
