Children’s architecture is the missing foundation in both architecture and urban development. This is not a new problem, but one we have inherited since the earliest civilizations. It stems from a long-standing dominance of adult-centered decision-making, where the city is designed around adult needs, and everything else is expected to adapt.
Vice President, Professor, Architect PhDEinar Lillebye
Adopting a children’s architecture approach turns child-rights commitments into concrete planning standards. Children’s audits and recommendations directly improve safe-routes programs and lead to more effective public space upgrades.
Member of the Board, Professor, Town PlannerBjørn Røe
Children must be at the center of all design components and principles that affect them. Cities can only be genuinely shaped around children’s needs when their perspectives actively guide the process, something adult-only engagement can never fully achieve.
