In this project, I collaborated with Eli, the program's creator, to shape the shared vision for his community. The goal was to create a space for sharing, making memories, and building relationships. To achieve this, I approached the project from the perspective of a potential participant - someone in need of such a community. This empathetic approach allowed me to better understand and formulate the community's needs, ensuring the design resonates with its intended users.
As the project concluded with plans for a new facility, we felt a sense of pride in our accomplishments. Looking ahead, I'm confident that Eli's heart and passion will drive this community to thrive. The Men's Shed is poised to become a vital safe haven for men in the region seeking social connection and support.
