I am concerned with the degradation of people’s relationship with space and architecture, and through this project I seek to make apparent the opportunities that space can offer. The project proposes a series of healing pavilions within the natural surroundings of Faulkner Park. The aim is that the phenomena-based experiences of these spaces will assist in the healing process of heart patients from nearby Alfred Hospital. I propose to do this through jolting one's awareness and perception, whether it is through a shift in atmosphere or through a bodily focussed interaction with space. Ultimately, the project seeks to encourage occupants to experience and realize the opportunities and encounters that are able to occur in an architectural environment.
