Concept
Contemporary society portrays emotions freely through social media, and as a result, it seems that there is a lack of censorship of our emotions. What does society communicate when it turns to social media to cope with emotions rather than coping with this on a personal and individual level?
In the era of the IPhone, it seems that social media connects us, and disconnects us at the same time. Can architecture communicate and connect our emotions as social media does? How will contemporary society balance these concerns?

Program
A program was created to evoke core emotions through these spaces. Dwellers experience space and process their emotions accordingly. These spaces are not intended to be prescribed emotional spaces, rather suggested spaces that facilitate an environment where people may cope with their emotions.
Human beings are complex, and as such, two may experience opposing emotions in the same programmed space. These experiences are processed through visual stimulation, perception, and scale. The program extends past these spaces to the community as dwellers share spaces between the prototypes. This creates an emotional connection throughout the community.
