I reimagined how cities can tackle societal issues and bring their impact on citizens' mental wellbeing into the public conversation.


 

For the Social Design Talent Award, I transformed my graduation project into a business proposal for the Municipality of Eindhoven, reimagining how cities can address mental wellbeing. I designed modular pop-up installations which are safe, welcoming spaces across the city where people can share stories, reflect, and connect.

 

What began as a space for young women to discuss the mental impact of social media grew into a vision for pop-ups on climate anxiety, loneliness, housing struggles, and more. Created in collaboration with psychologists and mental health organizations, these installations would provide low threshold support while gathering insights from citizens. The result: mental wellbeing becomes a shared civic effort, with Eindhoven co-creating solutions with together with its residents.
