Abstract

This thesis explores how architectural design can impact the recovery process in individuals with suicidal thoughts, survivors of suicide, and the bereaved. Research on precedents, writings, and studies on psychological and biophilic elements will guide in creating a design that bridges the disconnect between human beings and nature. This disconnect has been created by mental illness and isolation despite networking and digital connection through social media.
