The thesis was an exploration on how our built environment can contribute to a more balanced humane experience. While speed has become the hallmark trait of this century , our cities need unhurried spaces that allow us to slow down and be present. This project aims to introduce this slowness in a fast paced urban neighbourhood and let people ‘be’. Introducing Slowness is about cultivating a sense of mindfulness, not rejecting progress but re-evaluating our values.
The drawing shows the relationship of the built project with its immediate context and is highlighted with multiple colours to denote the gradual exploration of the built, the building unravelling itself to the viewer and thereby creating curiosity.
