LIZ STOCKMAL
INTRODUCTION
the place
The Place focuses on how communities and placemaking can foster recovery and positive mental health by creating a space for doing, being, becoming, and belonging. The Place consists of a mental health centre, a multi-purpose performance and gathering space, and a cafe for young adults aged 18-30.
main goals
Places are where people develop a sense of meaning, identity, and self-efficacy, find community connections, and identify opportunities. The Place seeks to support community engagement and social interaction, inspire agency, and destigmatize mental illness. These goals will be achieved by providing accessible and inclusive resources, furthering education and awareness around mental health, and providing a third place for anyone who needs one.
concept
The Place utilizes biophilic design strategies including the use of organic shapes and forms, natural textures and patterns, access to natural light, and the presence of plant life. The space balances soothing simplicity with visual stimulation to ease anxiety.
