The project deals with a community structure for association that is intended for those struggling with mental illness in Ness Ziona.
In order to bring financial profit to the association, we were required to choose a function that would do this, and I chose psychodrama treatment that combines a cafeteria and the space designated for psychodrama is also the space that can be rented out and earned in exchange for ongoing activities in the association.
While researching the community, I realized how transparent this disease is and how important the community is to those dealing with mental illness, the concept that led me in the project was synergy - an interaction giving rise to a whole that is greater than the simple sum of its parts.
By keeping the concept, I chose to create a central element in the space that consists of wooden bars that curve and form a wall covering and actually help create a separation between the therapeutic space and the public space.
The interior space is influenced by the building's architecture and its curves.
It was important to me to use durable materials for the project, which would be easy to maintain and sound-insulating.
In the central space, which is the patio, there is a piece of furniture that combines both a sofa and a computer desk.
