Abstract
A wellness center shaped by natural light and gentle biophilic cues creates an inviting sense of calm from the moment visitors arrive. For this wellness center, we wanted to create a welcoming and biophilic space where patients and caregivers can come to a community setting and feel connected to each other. A bright atrium anchors daily movement, while also providing enough spaces for rest. The wellness center blends wellbeing, inclusivity, and ease with architectural elements that tie our concept together.
