Best Implemented Interior Design Project for Public Space

About the project
This is the first ever Russian design concept for people with mental health issues implemented within a museum. There will be a sensory room with a set of art therapy modules. The purpose of such a room is enriching a visitor’s sensory experience, restoring his/her emotional equilibrium, teaching  him/her new communication skills. Used by a competent psychologist or educator, this room can become a tool to pattern or verbalize sensations and new knowledge of the world.
