Description

This project began with research into the phenomena of suicide and academic stress. This research inspired and evolved into a simple, deconstructed thesis question: Can space make someone more willing to speak about difficult things, or to divulge their innermost thoughts?
Moving from research questionnaires and interviews with therapists and clergy, this thesis project conducted first-hand research on the relationship between spatial design and self-divulgence. Full-scale testing led to a projected exploration through models, orthographic drawings, diagrams, and collages. These products test possible ways to create a space for communication, in which view, ergonomic relationships, sequence, and physical phenomena play key roles.
