Project Name: Safe Spaces

Link: http://projecthdesign.org/projects/safespaces.html

Location: Austin, Texas

In partnership with the Helping Hand Home for foster children in Austin, the Austin chapter of Project H will redesign and renovate two "Quiet Rooms," spaces within the Helping Hand Home in which children who misbeha...ve take "timeouts." The spaces, however, are sterile, even clinical, and offer no interactive experiences for children with behavioral conditions to calm down. Through research investigations into therapeutic uses for textures, objects, light, sound, landscapes, and material, the design team, in close collaboration with Helping Hand Home, will develop and test new concepts for these Quiet Rooms.

While this project is still in progress, this album provides a look into what the Austin chapter is working with and what progress they are making!
