Samenvatting

This thesis looks into the issue of how to translate the needs and ambitions of future Saxion students into a suitable spatial concept for the new location of Saxion Apeldoorn that enhances the learning process of students in the best possible way.
This is done by using Service Design Thinking as a process, in which five stages led to an innovative design for a living room on the ground floor of the new educational building of Saxion Apeldoorn. This living room consists of different areas with a relaxed atmosphere, where students can feel at home and do absolutely nothing before or after their study activities. A place which brings all students of Saxion Apeldoorn together and encourages them to stay longer at school.
