Thesis Statement: We humans are wired to connect. Connection is an experience of oneness, a sense of belonging or a moment of collective effervescence which is primal to human psychological

development. Research shows with the rise in technology young adults today are cognitively and emotionally stunted. They are lonelier than ever - digitally connected but socially isolated.

Utilizing the power of collective environment, this thesis aims to generate a framework of analog and digital techniques to create and foster effective moments of unification and a

sense of awe among Gen Z in physically designed spaces.
