ARCHIATRIC Mental Health Illustrations Paired with Architecture

A smart way of getting us to talk more, of a subject that the majority of us would prefer not to discuss.
Architect and Designer Federico Babina, takes an abstract notion like Mental Health and gives us some imagery, architectural forms, to understand better these conditions and the people that are affected by them. Most of these problems have existed for a long time in humans, some would say from the beginning, but they are usually hidden by the sufferers and mocked or shunned by the people that find the subject funny, or are simply embarrassed by them. Choosing Art, and this case architecture, to draw parallels, will hopefully help both sides come together with a better understanding, till a suitable, permanent solution is found. The video below shows the images in motion, which gives the concept a clearer picture. (Click mental Health above, to see more posts on this subject.)
