Problem multiple factors can cause mental health issues such as anxiety, stress, insecurities, depression, however with the increasing use of technology over the years the goal is to reintroduce children back to nature. The goal is to utilize nature as a form of therapy as nature can have many positive effects on mental health.

Concept To design a space that allows for the younger generation to unplug from technology and the negative impact on mental health associated with constant use. To be able to open up about their mental health and seek help in the privacy and comfort of a space that promotes nature and allows adolescents to play and feel like a kid again as well as letting children connect with nature while they go through therapy.

Connect and immerge clients into nature, whether it’s through natural materials, or elements of nature.
The use of organic shapes throughout the shape.
Allow them to feel safe enough within the environment to open up with their psychiatrist, and offer distractions when in need of a break from the session.
Reduce stress, anxiety while helping with depression.
Allow for privacy within the space to offer a sense of security.
