Through adaptive re-use of an existing building, I worked on creating a community center close to the heart of Canterbury at St Gregory’s Church which is currently St Gregory’s Center for Music owned by CCCU. The design is based on the concept of Salutogenic Architecture which focuses on providing solutions for promoting good health and well-being rather than treatment of diseases as an aftermath. The design focused on providing various spaces for separate activities that are interactive, recreational, skill-enhancing,  therapeutic and those that are contributive towards health and well-being of the community members.
