The goal of this project was to design a care center for people on the Autism spectrum to go during the day and learn, grow and become productive members of society. The center aims for young adults and adults from 18-40 years of age to provide the people with Autism rehabilitative services, social programs and activities that focus on health promotion, employment and education
Programs used: Revit (BIM), Enscape (Rendering), Photoshop, Illustrator (Post-Production)
The center targets individuals with High-Functioning Autism
The building site is located in the residential, commercial and industrial neighborhood of Testaccio in Rome, Italy. The area is characterized by its close proximity to the Tiber River along with its social housing units and former slaughterhouse.
