Problem Statement: Currently, depression is treated in large mental hospitals or psychiatric facilities that create a negative environment around the patients. Research Questions: 1.Why should a depression treatment center be different from a typical psychiatric clinic? 2. How can the building program support the patient’s need for social inclusion? Design theme: The depression treatment center will be a hybrid between psychiatric facilities and a community center for the whole neighborhood. In this way, social inclusion will be realized in a positive, attractive environment both for the patients and the community.
