Theassignmentrevolved arounddesigninga(25x25) Msquare,withthefunction andlocation of ourchoice. Sincethiswasassigned duringthelockdownperiod,I felttheneedforurban pockets in my neighborhood whereIcouldjustspendtime in nature. Thisurbanpocket is a sensorygarden to enhance thementalhealth of its users.

BEING FORCED INSIDE THE FOUR WALLS OF OUR HOUSE, DON’T WE FEEL TO JUST GO OUTSIDE ONCE, HOWEVER SMALL THE PLACE MIGHT BE, AND INTERACT WITH THEHUMANKIND? WHEN WILL OUR COMMUNITY REALIZE THE NEED FORPUBLIC GARDENS AND COMMUNITY SPACES, WHERE PEOPLE COME TOGETHERTO UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER’S PROBLEMS AND FINALLY COME OUT OF ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION TOGETHER?MENTAL HEALTH IS AS IMPORTANT AS PHYSICAL HEALTH AND AS THE PANDEMIC IS REVEALING OUR STATE OF SHOCK, DESPAIR, AND ANXIETY EVERY DAY, WE NEED NOT ONLY POCKETS BUT “SENSORY POCKETS” WHICH STIMULATE THE SENSES FOR A BETTER PSYCHOLOGICAL IMPACT.
