A creative, high quality and richly designed spatial environment of the school is one of the preconditions for effective teaching and learning aimed at cognition, research and holistic development of students. Environment focused on students demands a teacher who sees every student as a separate individual and that means that he or she recognizes that students in every classroom learn with a help of different styles, have different abilities and needs. Learning environment encourages positive intearctions among students and enables supporting space in which the students feel respected and valuable, so designing space as a learning environment must represent teamwork of students and a teacher. The research was conducted through participatory observation at the Ivan Gundulić Primary School in Zagreb, highlighted as an example of good school practice, which is involved in numerous project activities presented in this study, which enrich, structure and enhance school's spatial environment creating stimulating environments for learning. Stimulating environments have been photo-documented and project activities coordinator at the school level and primary teachers involved in project activities have been interviewed. The thoughts and attitudes of the teachers, regarding the involvement in the project activities and the influence spatial environment has on whole educational process, have been expressed. The importance of engaging in activities that encourage the dynamism of the teaching process and the active role of students in creating an innovative environment is emphasized.
