Centre of Cerenity

Abstract

This thesis investigates the design and development of the Centre of Serenity, a holistic mental and physical wellness center situated on a tranquil hilltop. The project spans 8 acres, with 4 acres dedicated to thoughtfully designed built spaces, including therapy zones, meditation halls, fitness areas, residential cottages, and administrative facilities. The remaining 4 acres are preserved for landscaped open spaces, walking trails, and rejuvenation gardens. The design philosophy integrates sustainability, biophilic design, and traditional wellness principles with modern architectural techniques to create a serene environment conducive to mental and physical well-being. By harmonizing natural elements, such as lush greenery and open expanses, with functional and aesthetically pleasing built forms, the Centre of Serenity aims to provide a rejuvenating retreat that fosters healing, self discovery, and a profound connection with nature.
