Ever think about how strange it is that — on a purely aesthetic level — schools for children are such dismal, ugly spaces? It'd be impossible to repurpose a typical school for any other business purpose at anywhere near the local market rate; people feel icky just standing in one

This is what a school could look like, and is in fact what one school does look like because the children themselves collaborated on the design & construction processpic.twitter.com/ppyIt4EANu
an old school by my parents' place got turned into a library. seems to be a popular place
Really hoping folks will rise to this challenge you've identified because I share your view. Schools were built as prisons effectively, so now comes time to repurpose them for life. #RetrofitRevolution
I saw some really great repurposing of schools into condos in New York City in the 90s. But I still agree with you: ugly and dismal. Why? It's awful.
And it’s no surprise they’re so often the setting for horror films
Strange? No. Disappointing? Yes. It takes money to build aesthetically pleasing spaces. It seems that schools can't afford to educate students and fund teaches let alone make the space pretty.
We understand it takes money to build aesthetic spaces, and that the education is underfunded (the food is gross, too). I find all of these things strange, mainly because of how the money is funneled. My daughter's school is in a nice area, the staff is paid fairly well -pic.twitter.com/WEy9jGbveW
How true is this? Lot of ugly businesses and offices out there, and all of the schools I attended (all public in poor rural areas) had nice green spaces, trees, clean halls, etc. The trailers used for some classrooms were pretty dismal, though, so if that trend has dominated...
It’s completely not true. And pretty much every school is more delightful than any office. I have no idea what the OP is thinking.
