Urban Oasis explores an innovative approach to address these urban challenges through the integration of urban follies as therapeutic elements within the urban fabric. The project navigates the potential of urban follies as architectural interventions aimed at creating cohesive and interactive social spaces within urban contexts. Follies, historically known for their whimsical, non-functional nature, are reimagined as purposeful elements designed to serve as therapy spaces, fostering social interaction, mental well-being, and community engagement. 

There is a growing need to create urban environments that support meaningful social interaction and connection in a time of rapid digitalization and physical isolation. This project highlights the value of promoting social capital, community involvement, and a sense of belonging among Johor Bahru's residents by giving priority to adaptable shared social spaces. Concerns about mental health are widespread, and urban settings have a big impact on how people feel about their mental health. The goal is to develop places that support mental health, lower stress levels, and improve general well-being for Johor Bahru people by incorporating therapeutic practices into urban design.
