Last summer I was invited to contribute a chapter to Les Watson’s survey of new approaches to space design in learning spaces and libraries. I’m delighted to have it on its way and was excited to see the volume appear (prematurely) in Amazon. Since the publication date is actually before the deadline for my final revisions, it seems optimistic, but looking forward to seeing this international survey of learning space design projects.
