Modern medicine concentrates on fixing our needs in a fast manner rather than attacking the root of the problem. The consecuence is detaching our body, mind, from one another. This “Wellness Center” offers alterna tive healing methods that take this union back. The medical treatment is specialized for each individual and offers space for over 48 guests. The spaces in the building are designed for each kind of treatment yet they all are ambiguous enough so the mind can wonder and the individual can use it as he pleases facilitating positive change on each user. The forms, curves and atmosphere guide the transition from one space to another provoking a change of mindset. The transcen dental experience that the architecture is offering allows the mind, spirit, and body to reconnect once again.

“I am at this place where sound is energy where color has mass and taste, every moment is a glorious adventure, balanced on the fine line between joy and madness.
I may be insane.
I might have finally lost my mind. I don't care.
I am bliss and freedom in this moment, encapsulated by the rushing wind of my own thoughts as they sail by visceral, anthropomorphic”

PROPOSAL DESIGN:
JORDAN’S LUXURY RESIDENTIAL
DEVELOPMENT
This project was created for the 100 architects competition. The deliverable was to create a residence that addresses the mass residential development that is occurring right now in Jordan. The design intention was to create a comfortable residence that accom plishes the environmental needs while blending with the site. The monochromatic exterior is one of the key points on achieving this serenity and the form of the building hugs the mountains around it. This fluidity allows for the path to be dictated in a seamless and sexy manner. The construction and materials would take advantage of the local resources and with the idea of all being elaborated on site. This will help integrate not only the local resources but the local expertises in order to construct it and give it life.

HEALING A COMMUNITY SUSTAINABLY
The project adresses Jacksonville’s high homelssness issue. Instead of visualizing it as an obstacle this project’s intention is to create a loop in where they are given the oppor tunity to reintegrate to society and become active members in its economy and community. Each space is a progressive step towards this goal while also allowing the user to experience and take the path at their own pace.
The building also serves as an anchor for the community of Jacksonville
As designers and architects, it is our responsibility to look for hollistic ideas that target solutions that can integrate interdisciplinary knowledge and citizen participation for shelter and sustainable farming. It is essential to under stand the physical, social, and cultural substrate of developing territories in which food and refuge are simultane ously critical.

WHAT DICTATES THE FORM ARE THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE BUILDING TO BE SELF SUSTAINABLE. THIS IS ACHIEVED WITH ALGAE ENERGY, WIND ENERGY, AND RAINWATER RECOLLECTION. UTILIZING THE WIND AS ONE OF THE MAIN MOTORS, HELIX WIND TURBINES ARE INCORPORATED IN THE DESIGN. THESE CONDITIONS FUNCTION AS A CHANNEL FOR THE WIND AND DIRECTS IT TO THE TURBINES TO INCREASE ITS SPEED. ALSO ALGAE HAS BECOME AN OPTION TO REPLACE FOSSIL FUELS. IT USES ALGAE TO CONVERT CARBON DIOXIDE INTO HYDROGEN THROUGH PHOTOSYNTHETIC PROCESS. THE PANELS BRING ENERGY PRODUCTION TO THE CONSUMER CREATING MORE ENERGY THAN PHOTOVOLTAIC, BUT ARE NOT AS ENERGY CONSUMING TO MAKE.
