The importance of creativity and creativity are on the rise, as they are increasingly considered as key capabilities required by the future societies. With the trend, the interest in nurturing creativity-convergence talents is also in creasing. As the times change, children's libraries are also transforming their spaces to provide various educational functions for children's development in creativity and imagination, as well as to host performance, exhibition, and cultural classes. However, such programs hosted by these libraries are overly focused on play activities for infants and toddlers, which make them inadequate to play a role as spaces for executing basic educational functions for nurturing creativity-convergence talents required by the future society. The current study aims to propose interior spaces for public children's libraries using maker space, which will become a core of future educational practice. Maker space, at the center of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, refers to "a space in which anything imagined can be manufactured." In the case of the United States, where "maker culture" is active, libraries, museums, and other public spaces host maker spaces for every one to easily access. In order to vitalize such maker culture in the country, the Korean government is also establishing Infinite Imagination Rooms, but it is not providing spaces required for educating children in such technologies. The current study seeks to suggest new types of interior spaces as ones that support public education. |
