Health & Play

Collaborating with nursing students during my semester in Rome, Italy, I was challenged with the design of a multi-purpose Healthcare Center located inside the Roman former slaughterhouse pavilions in Testaccio. This center should provide the neighborhood with rehabilitative services that focus on the promotion of the importance of health, as no healthcare services currently exist in Testaccio.

This pediatric health clinic offers both mental and physical healthcare, and teaching strong habits to young people is an effective way to help future generations. Using children's desire to play and explore, I use color zoning and functional organization to interact and connect with children and promote health value through light and playful design.
