The Project
Second of two phased renovations addressing the Men’s Recovery from Addiction Program (MRAP) units. Studio G transformed rigid institutional ‘mental wards’ into welcoming, daylit therapeutic spaces for people in detox and early-stage rehabilitation. Double-loaded corridors are opened to create connected, engaging spaces for therapy and socializing, and offer views into common rooms and to the landscape beyond. Biophilic design incorporating natural colors and materials and references to elements found in nature were employed to contribute to patient healing.
