ARTFUL EXPRESSION IS HEALTHY PSYCHOLOGICALLY + PHYSICALLY

SOCIAL GATHERINGS

JOIN IMMIGRANTS TO A NEW ENVIRONMENTS.

EXPOSURE TO NATURE REPLENISHES + ENERGIZES PEOPLE.

EXPRESSION ACTIVITIES

EVERYONE EATS VARIOUS FOOD. COOKING IS AN EXPLORATION OF CULTURE.

MUSIC IS WOVEN INTO STORY TELLING, RITUALS + GATHERINGS. IT IS A UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE.

DANCE IS SYMBOLIC + DISTINCT. MOVEMENT JOINS PEOPLE .

A MAKERSPACE FOR IMMIGRANT STUDENTS

CONCEPT STATEMENT

IMMIGRANT STUDENTS DO NOT HAVE EQUAL ACCESS TO RESOURCES, PEOPLE, + INFORMATION, FURTHER SEPARATING THEM FROM OTHERS. JUST AS A MAP CONNECTS TWO POINTS, THIS SAFE MAKERSPACE CONNECTS ISOLATED STUDENTS TO OTHERS; CULTIVATING A MINDSET WHERE SOCIALIZATION IS AS SPONTANEOUS AS IT IS NECESSARY + MOVEMENT SPACES INTERSECT, ENCOURAGING STUDENTS TO NOT ONLY LEARN NEW SKILLS, BUT SHARE THEIR IDENTITIES. DERIVED FROM THE UNIVERSAL ORGANIZATION OF A CITY CENTER, DIVERSE PEOPLE ARE INTEGRATED TOGETHER FORMING A CONGLOMERATE OF CULTURES AND A NETWORK OF PERSONAL EXPRESSION.

A CONGLOMERATE OF CULTURES USER GROUP DESCRIPTION

WHEN SURROUNDED IN A NEW ENVIRONMENT, STUDENTS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES ARE CHALLENGED EVERYDAY. IMMIGRANTS ARE FORCED TO NAVIGATE FOREIGN PLACES, PUTTING A HEAVY STRAIN ON THEIR MENTAL HEALTH, WHICH IS A RELATIVELY NEW CONCEPT TO MANY CULTURES.

MAKING NEW CONNECTIONS IS DIFFICULT BECAUSE OF FACTORS SUCH AS: LANGUAGE BARRIERS, CULTURAL DIFFERENCES, ECONOMIC STATUS, FAMILIAL STATUS, TRAUMA, LACK OF SAFE SHELTER AND DISCRIMINATION. THESE SOCIETAL ISSUES PILE ON TOP OF CLASSWORK, ADDING STRESS. TACKLING THIS NEW LIFESTYLE INDEPENDENTLY MEANS THE LARGEST MILESTONES OF YOUNG ADULTHOOD ARE OFTEN ACHIEVED OR CELEBRATED ALONE. UNIVERSITIES MUST MEET THE NEEDS OF ALL THEIR STUDENTS: IMPLEMENTING WELLNESS SPACES THAT FOSTER CREATIVE EXPRESSION + SOCIAL HEALTH. FOLLOWING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, ISOLATION IS AT AN ALL TIME HIGH, + CONFIDENCE, AN ALL TIME LOW.

ASSIMILATION TO A NEW HOME MUST NOT MEAN THE SACRIFICE OF OUR IDENTITY.

QUEZON CITY, PHILIPPINES

MUMBAI, INDIA MEXICO CITY, MEXICO

SHANGHAI, CHINA

JUST AS STREETS FORM A COMPLEX GRID OF INTERSECTIONS, THE MAKERSPACE CREATES HAPPENSTANCES BETWEEN DIVERSE PEOPLE. BUILDING MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIPS. DERIVED FROM 4 MAJOR CITIES WITH HIGH NUMBERS OF IMMIGRANT STUDENTS, CONNECTION IS INEVITABLE.

SOCIALIZATION INFORMED DESIGN

DESIGN DESCRIPTION

THE DEFINING LINES COALESCE IN THE MAKERSPACE, DIVIDING IT INTO 3 MAIN DESTINATIONS. WHILE THE STUDIO, WORKSHOP + RETREAT HAVE DIFFERENT PROGRAMMATIC USE - THEY INTEGRATE AND FUNCTION TOGETHER, BUILDING OFF ONE ANOTHER. THE KITCHEN, PEG WALL + OTHER ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS CREATE A DISTINCT SENSE OF PLACE, WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY ENCOURAGES STUDENTS TO LIVE + SOCIALIZE IN THEIR OWN WAY. MIS-MATCHED FURNITURE, ACCESSORIES + FINISHES ARE A SENTIMENT THAT WHEN PIECES ARE MIXED TOGETHER, THEY CREATE A WHOLE. SOCIALIZATION IS THE TOUCHSTONE IN A RESTORATIVE ENVIRONMENT.

THE RETREAT SPACE IS JUXTAPOSED AGAINST THE EXPOSED SOCIALIZATION SPACE- ACTING AS A MENTAL REST ZONE FROM THE COMMOTION OF EVERYDAY LIFE. IT OFFERS RESPITE WITHOUT DISCONNECTION FROM THE COMMUNITY.

THE STRUCTURE IS INTEGRATED WITH THE WORLD AROUND IT, HARVESTING SUNLIGHT’S SOCIALIZATION BENEFITS. THE SHED INSPIRED FORM ENCOURAGES PEOPLE TO TAKE CREATIVE DETOURS, PUSHING USERS TO EXPLORE THE UNFAMILIAR.

COMMUNITY IS A NECESSITY. CONNECTION IS A HUMAN RIGHT.
