​

Healing Hands is a mental health facility that specializes in Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. The centre focuses on helping individuals, heal, adopt a way of coping, and become aware of their inner strength by providing a safe space and a customized treatment plan. The design of the facility emphasizes the importance of mental tranquillity through Biophilic Design Strategies. Public spaces include access to natural light and interactive social elements to help create a friendly and inviting atmosphere. The circulation of the space encourages movement by incorporating visually attractive hallways and lobbies. Sophisticated materiality and biophilic palettes are included to inspire well-being and convey a sense of safety and security.
