404 CAVE SOCIAL IN ISOLATION SCHOOL PROJECT
PROJECT STATEMENT
People dissapearing in the 404 Cave. An escape from reality. An unorthodox mixed-use building typology of mental healthcare center that fused with art center. Using Eco-Art therapy to step back and healed in a protected refuge without much intrusion of the strangers. The simplicity of the nature art, make us to engage closely with water, soil, plants, rocks etc. People found happiness in simplicity and liberty. Learn to embrace the imperfection in life from the everchanging nature. A ‘wabi sabi’ lifestyle that appreciate the beauty of nature that is imperfect, impermanent and imcomplete. A global research proofed that 70% of mental illness patient did not receive proper treatment because of fear, pride, doubt, judgement and felt ashamed. The deinstituitionalization of a psychiatric hospital, normalizing the stigma and autonomy is the solution to answer.
Q: “Why is there a need of formality and instituitionalization

DESIGN STRATEGY
Obsure the buiding function from mental use space to a public art centre will helps the patients to open up their inner feelings. Everchanging nature art will pique the patient’s interest to come for the therapy.
SECTIONAL PERSPECTIVE
Q
“Why don’t people with mental issue seek help from the proper mental healthcare center?”
In overall, the site gives a very tense mood. Introducing a typical mental healthcare center into site will make the site hostile and cold. Informality, secureness and high proximity to nature are the main concept to go for to soften and tone down the formality of site.
Patient kept their mental illness to themselves
Lack of cultural value, arts and entertainment
Long time and high cost of construction
Repeating modern style and boxy building form
Typical types of art were boring and not eco-friendly

PROJECT STATEMENT
Cottage industry: residential + small industry. Petaling Jaya Old Town is a town abandoned by the younger generation. The historical value of the town was covered up by a layer of shabby and unmaintained look. People perceived the town by its appearance without knowing its inner beauty. In PJ old town, people dumped away their furniture when they are broken and worn out, same like elderly who got abandoned by their children in the nursing home. Every man has his own story. Judging by look, the elderly are seen as old & powerless. Nevertheless, they are rich in their spirituality with their past experiences, talents & skill. Old furniture may seem defective & faulty, but they are made up of the rare quality materials that may have been through remarkable history even interesting stories embedded behind its imperfect appear ance. Antique should be given second chance likewise for the elderly. They are not worthless but their values were obscured and covered up by their appearance. Hence, the proposed antique revival industry will turn PJ Old town into a new artsy, vintage and hipster attraction.
