Rehabilitation Center for Drug Addicts

Architectural Concept of Rehabilitation Center
 
Concept of architectural project based on Social issues and problems of drug-addict peoples in our country. Drug addiction is one of the main and unsolved problem in Georgia. There is no Facility which provides full their recovery.
The public attitude is twofold – who are addict people? One part think they are criminals, and the other calls them patients. Overcoming drug addiction is a complex process, after treatment and improvement in symptoms addiction people need rehabilitation services. These services often combine treatment  (often required for program admission), independent living and social skills training, psychological support to clients and their families, housing, vocational rehabilitation and employment, social support and network enhancement and access to leisure activities.
Concept of the project is urgent and important, and my architectural solution was the create a stimulating environment near the city, ecological area, comfortable and contemporary building,  structure with a dynamic interior split into seven units that can be combined together or used separately.
