Abstract

“While nature is important for the community, I also feel that it is important for an individual. If he is able to take in and enclose his own piece of air, sky and rain, he will have a much stronger awareness that he is living that he has been given life.” – Tadao Ando. Stress is a primary trigger element in today's environment, which is quicker, more demanding, and more competitive than ever. Happiness and serenity are the most significant aspects of a person's existence. Without a doubt, man has advanced to the age of virtual existence, managing goods and interactions digitally. However, fundamental survival necessities continue to push an individual to retreat to his bare minimum. The basic need of the people is to nourish their bodies and souls. This raises design challenges that might increase wellbeing. The project's goal is to create places with characteristics that improve the user's surroundings while they receive treatments and therapies. Depression, stress, emotional trauma, anxiety, lifestyle problems, and other difficulties must be addressed first in order to reach inner peace, healing, and well-being. To address this issue, venues should be constructed in such a way that they connect individuals to natural and rural surroundings, causing them to relearn the harmful contemporary lifestyle subconsciously. It would then guide the individual to a healthy and healed physique. When a user comes with the purpose of getting relaxed and rejuvenated, both internally and externally, there is a necessity to provide spaces with such design elements that help a person experience some special transformative energy which can subsequently enhance wellbeing, and heal a person. With the increasing urbanisation, such healing spaces are imperative in today’s time as they cater to both, the poor health of mind and body and consequently in the self-healing of a person from both- outside and inside.
