This project, sponsored by The Hong Kong Jockey Club, involved the complete renovation and spatial redesign of the Adolescent Mental Health Centre within United Christian Hospital.
The goal was to transform an institutional medical environment into a warm, optimistic, and therapeutic space that promotes mental wellness for young patients. Through the integration of colour psychology, playful graphics, and natural materials, the design creates a calming yet uplifting environment — encouraging healing, self-expression, and positive social interaction.
이 프로젝트는 홍콩 자키클럽의 지원으로 진행된 연합병원 청소년 정신건강센터 리노베이션입니다. 기존의 병원 공간을 밝고 따뜻한 분위기의 치료 환경으로 전환하여 청소년 환자들의 심리적 안정과 회복을 돕는 것을 목표로 하였습니다.
컬러 심리학, 그래픽 디자인, 자연 소재를 조화시켜 치유와 소통, 긍정적인 에너지가 흐르는 공간으로 재탄생시켰습니다.
