DISABILITIES EXPERIENCE PAVILION.

DISABILITIES EXPERIENCE.

​

In a group of 2, this project introduces us to wellness architecture where we were to select a specific disability. It allows us to develop a basic understanding of material poetics in relation to user experience. After conducting workshops, we were tasked to propose a pavilion within 8mx8mx4m to allow this user group to participate in a set of recreational activities. It highlights the importance of disability awareness and is centered around the notion of addressing universal accessibility, as well as the spatial experience of disabled groups in this project.

REFLECTION.

From this assignment, I was able to reflect on the importance of disability awareness in the design of spaces and how to apply it to architecture in order to create memorable user experiences. It involved a long and complex process of understanding, however, the analysis conducted was a very interesting discovery as it was my first time understanding users with physical disabilities and what type of recreational activities are suited for their needs.

As we were a group of 2, all of the tasks were equally allocated to each member. Fortunately, it was a very fun experience as there we had teamwork and communicated frequently. However, it was quite stressful as our outcome was a little rushed, and think that we could have produced a better outcome if we had more time. Overall, this assignment has definitely has allowed me to generate a better understanding of how to apply material poetics to create a set of recreational activities that is suited to the selected user group.
