TOPIC 1 : INSTITUTE OF MENTAL
ILLNESS AND REHABILITATION
CENTRE
AIM
To provide a healthy surrounding for the mentally disturbed peoples
(patients) to support their healing process.

OBJECTIVE
In this work I would like to find out the specific needs that the
mentally ill require from their architectural environment. In difficult times
patients are particularly sensitive to their environment, which can
contribute to their well-being.
Additionally, I'm interested in the relationship between mental illness
and society. The handling of mentally ill people has changed considerably
over time, which is also expressed in architecture.

SCOPE
To provide a healthy environment for the mentally disturbed patients
by designing space.
To study the behaviour of human according to the surrounding space.
 Architecture has a great influence on people, and that people
influence architecture as well.
Relationship between built space and people is of great importance,
especially in the field of psychiatry. A mentally disturbed person perceives
his environment differently than healthy person.

TOPIC 2: YOUTH CENTRE
 INTRODUCTION
The Youth Center is a social and recreational center intended
primarily for use by children ages 11 to 20 years. In some cases, children as
young as six years old will use a Youth Center, but usually only if special
programs are in place to accommodate them.

AIM

The Center supports opportunities for youth to develop their physical, social,
emotional, and cognitive abilities and to experience achievement,
leadership, enjoyment, friendship, and recognition.
OBJECTIVE
The Youth Center offers organized instructional programs for physical
activities such as dance, yoga, and martial arts and for academic and arts
programs such as science, crafts, and theater.
It also offers opportunities for unstructured activities such as game
playing, socializing, club meetings, and outdoor play. While unstructured
activities are an essential part of a Youth Center, these are staffed facilities
and control and supervision are critical elements.
These elements impact facility design as do considerations for youth-
friendly and youth-appealing design. Safety is also of paramount
importance.
