Studio 5: Project Book
Objective: Submit all work done on the senior capstone project during the quarter.
Project Overview - The Seed Farm
Client - The client is Out of Darkness, formed by a group of individuals who were seeking to end sex-trafficking in Atlanta. They run a round-the-clock hotline, rescue female sex trafficking victims and offer short-term safe places for the women to stay. They have set up a vibrant organization partnering successfully with the Atlanta community. They are an ideal client for this facility as they actually have the resources, information and experience to execute a long term recovery facility for victims of sex trafficking.
Design Problem - The Out of Darkness short-term rehabilitation center, The Solomon House, is running out of space for adult female victims and there is a great need for a facility for the adult female victims to stay for long-term recovery.
Design Solution - This design proposes the establishment of a long-term recovery facility, The Seed Farm, for female adult victims of sex-trafficking on farmland outside of the city of Atlanta to use nature to aid in the recovery process, while providing the women with opportunities to be part of a community, learn and experience empowerment. Three different building types will be utilized: The Seed Garden (retail/tea room), The Seed Orchard (administrative headquarters for Out of Darkness, The Seed Cottage (residential).
Design Concept - The overall design concept for The Seed Farm will focus on interior beauty, showing women how internal and external nourishment can allow the individual to blossom and transform. With seeds as inspiration, the design will utilize layers, textures and transparency. The design will use the bright colors seen in detailed seed images as focal points and accents.
This project will fulfill an important need in the ministries associated with ending sex-trafficking. The long-term recovery facility will take the healing of the women a step further by providing them with a place to stay, a place to work and reintegrate them in society in a healthy way, giving them a new start in life.
