Architect Mark Dudek aims to 'provide early years professionals with the power to create the right buildings for young children so as to give each one of them a good start'. It examines why architecture is important and what aspects are key for young children.
As well as an investigation into the aesthetics of buildings, there is also a practical guide to what's involved in commissioning a new building. The reader is carried through every stage of the process - from appraisal and design brief to construction and completion. A final recommendation is that design should be a continuing process, with early years spaces evolving and changing just as family homes do.
