Children in resource limited areas in Nigeria, Africa often suffer from severe burn injuries that result in unfortunate lifelong limitations, deformation of their bodies, and can sometimes lead to death. Due to the lack of financial aid, burn institutions do not have the proper resources to treat children in an appropriate manner. Children can experience long-term psychological problems such as anxiety, depression, and difficulties with social functioning along with the horrific physical pains. This rehabilitation center aims to address these issues by creating an environment where children can heal properly both physically and mentally through biophilia, color theory, and control theory. This center will also provide a space for physicians and nurses to receive training on proper treatment methods.

RESEARCH
This logo draws inspiration from the banana leaf a native plant to Nigeria that has been used to wrap burn wounds in the past. The purpose of this logo is to instill trust into the parents who bring their children in for treatment. The facility is named Waraka which means healing in the native language of Nigeria, Hausa. This name further emphasizes the trustworthiness of the facility.
LOCATION
Lagos, Nigeria was the chosen location due to burn injuries being the fourth most common injury resulting in death (Oladele & Olabanji, 2010). The site that this burn center will reside in is in the center of a hospital training area. This gives medical staff who may not have been fully trained easy access to education, and opportunities for students to get early hands-on exposure.

The project above is an immersive museum that explores the art work of Alexander Calder. The museum is an abstraction of the various forms of geometries that he used in his pieces. This room in particular studies the circles in 3D form. Calder used primary colors in his work which is highlighted through the glowing spheres. The black spheres are glossy to create a mirrored effect and an illusion. The pattern on the floor and ceiling is sharp to contrast the smooth edges of a sphere.
