The Community Center for Wellbeing & Recreation is envisioned as a sanctuary for holistic rejuvenation, offering zones for physical activity, mental wellness, and quiet work. Inspired by the flow of praana—the life force—the design adopts a curvilinear form that stabilizes in space, symbolizing balance and inner harmony. A central canopy, abstracted from the form of a banyan tree with drooping branches, anchors the space as a serene focal point. This biophilic intervention fosters connection with nature and self, while the fluid architecture and layered spatial experiences promote calm, community interaction, and sustained wellbeing.
