| dc.description.abstract | Humans and the natural world once shared a profound connection through the reciprocal nature of their relationship. Due to the continuous changes in the technology and customs of society, as well as the apprehension of those who are different from us, humans have disconnected from each other, animals, and nature. This has led to the mistreatment and ignorance of groups such as the elderly and stray animals who have been cast out from society. This project aims to reconnect humankind and the natural world through the improvement of animal shelter design and the amalgamation of building programs including a memory care facility, veterinary clinic, cat café, dog library, and a gallery. My project site incorporates these programs and uses hodological space to invite the user to reconnect with nature and the people and animals in the shelter without bias. | en_US |
