Feel like I'm the only sad person in the world...

"City of SADNESS"

Depressive Disorder, Sad and Lonely...

Three years ago I got Depressive Disorder... My family began to blame me... My friends escaped me... My classmates teasd me... No one needed me and this world hated me...

I felt no where to stay, but to leave..

the huge killer in the 21st Century. At a global level, over 300 million people are estimated to suffer from depression, equivalent to 4.4% of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population. Every year, Millions of them ended up committing suicide. However, scientists found people living in groups like some African tribes still do today never get depression. This makes me wonder if there is something wrong with our living space. Can we help people with depression by architecture? Die Let's see my answer. Hardly Move Constant Sad

Lonely Then I found lots of people like me. Depression is never far away from anyone... But the society dosen't wellcome negative So we hide, and sad...

Where can we go?

3 month

Individual Work Site: Zhuzhou, Hunan, China

Project Description: This project is a Community Activation Center designed by renovating a local abondoned 1977-factory. The main users of this community center are workers who worked at the factory back in 1970s. Now they are seniors whose ages ranging from 60-80 years old. They are retired and most of they live alone. They feel isolated from this century and need a place to spend every day.

1977

We are elders nowadays. The factory was ababdoned since 2007. Me and my old colleagues still live around here but no one stays at the yard any more. I miss those days so much, at that time we really bonded with each others!

Work hard!

Stay with group!

2017

It's 1977! I'm a 30-year-old worker of the factory. All the workers live in the apartments arounding our work place. The factory located in a big yard where we read, exercise, chat, eat... Tell you! Happiness happens here! No one likes to stay at home, we love our yard!
