This thesis investigates how cultural values can be used to influence design and architectural thinking. Architecture should not deny anyone – especially migrants and healthcare staff – caring and welcoming spaces and environments.

Speaking Surfaces
Year completed: 2019
Speaking Surfaces is translated into a temporal strategy where it aims to reignite the connection between people and art within a gallery setting. The premise of the strategy is to present key prompts to the chosen artists and allocate time for a series of craft-based workshops. The prompts chosen for this programme is derived from existing facilities within the WM building. Design is all about community - whether it is about supporting an existing one or creating new ones. The gallery space comes alive from the interaction and participatory gestures of its visitors. Through the series of workshop, it allows visitors to express their creativity and presents the opportunity for individuals to display their work and be a part of a collective.
