Thesis Statement: Given the absence of qualified personnel and infrastructure, along with the current architectural typology, there is a pressing need for the establishment of a novel community mental health center in Mexico, this project will focus on mood disorders such as bipolar disorder and major depression integrating both mental and physical health services, enabling patients to manage their overall well-being. This novel approach aims to create an environment for patients, their families, medical personnel, aspiring psychologists, and the wider community to foster mental health awareness and support, incorporating vernacular architecture with an emphasis on religious motifs defining the center’s design ethos.
