Centro de fomento para la salud mental

The Center for the Promotion of Mental Health is a building that can offer a series of programs, spaces and activities that help the care and recovery of people who have early mental disorders, such as stress, unipolar depression, behaviors caused by alcohol and hallucinogens, anxiety and epilepsy, which are caused by biological, genetic, congenital factors, as well as by the natural and social aspects in which the individual lives. This architectural project is located in the El Castillo neighborhood of the city of Medellín.One of the most important activities for these patients with mental disorders is the insertion they will have in society, in this case in the neighborhood community of El Castillo. Different spatial, social and natural strategies will be provided where mental patients and the inhabitants of the neighborhood can integrate and thus reduce the prejudice that exists in the face of mental illness, as well as foster an interest and care for this issue.Through organic architecture and its combination with vegetation, and other factors such as the perception of space and the sensory, we seek to provide a mental well-being to the two types of users, where they can appropriate the spaces, take a walk , enjoy art, reading, physical and group activities, a coffee, spaces on mental health care, that is to say that mental patients and the inhabi-tants of the neighborhood leave their routine that absorbs them to discover and stimulate their mind through these alternatives proposed by the development center
