    Every day, the need grows to redesign or create new educational environments that encourage imagination, collaborative work, creativity and motivation for learning. All of these things depend on the influence of interior design, as the adaptation of new learning methodologies of the 21st century requires. In this sense, this project aims to set up new interior design methodologies in learning areas, taking into consideration current educational needs. Therefore, the implementation of a new methodology is suggested. To this end, the research presented in this thesis has a theoretical and practical approach; first, a traditional classroom, along with its characteristics, has been analyzed looking at the main issues of the Open Plan. In the same manner, essential elements in terms of interior design, among others, have been researched. Additionally, a descriptive analysis has been carried out distinguishing fixed constants from selected design typologies implemented in Europe and Latin America that influenced the development of educational spaces. Finally, as a result of the project, a design proposal has been created wherein the classroom grants more versatility in response to the conditions and determinants of the Open Plan principle, thus guaranteeing multi-functionality in the space. This research seeks to establish the need to rethink the classroom space in accordance with the current demands of students and teachers. It also seeks to be a focal point for new research over the influences and changes within educational movements that arise over time.
