Stress Relief Center
The Third Place
The ‘third place’ lies between home and work, a place where people can exist together for no reason more than wanting to connect with other humans. This project challenged students to create a kiosk to be placed on Syracuse University campus. The kiosk's goal is to improve student life and connect the college community.
The stress relief center offers a variety of services for students on campus, including the Meditation Center, Activity Stage, and Sun Pods
Sun Pods
Sun Pods provide students with much needed nutrients, while also providing a modular social space.
Meditation Center
The meditation center is a multilevel structure that provides a quiet, calm place for students to meditate.
Activity Stage
The activity stage serves students as a place to engage in mental and physical activity with other students without pressures or overexertions.
