Abstract
The premise of this project is how people regularly encounter architecture and how design has the potential to positively impact mental health and enable more independence in the lives of people who are affected by it. This project is primarily centered around bridging the connection between research of neurological disorders, mental health, and how they interact with the design world. The end product will be a new state mental hospital for North Dakota that aims to develop a built environment that helps people with debilitating mental disorders get onto the road of recovery and ultimately learn how to integrate themselves into society and lead better lives.
