Client/project author: Mara Sânziana Urcan
Format: bilingual architectural research presentation
Status: available online; the centre is a diploma proposal, not an operating facility
The communication challenge
An architectural project contains several stories at once: why it matters, how its programme fits together, where it belongs, and what a person might experience inside it. Drawings need context as well as space to be examined.
What I made
The website moves from premise to system, site, experience, room, and architecture. A reader can follow the argument or explore a specific drawing.
- English and Romanian entrances make the presentation accessible to different readers.
- A day/night comparison reveals two views of the same place.
- Room hotspots explain privacy, movement, water, and the garden.
- Floor selection and enlarged drawings support closer inspection.
- Research notes, image captions, and credits keep the proposal’s context visible.
My role and the collaboration
My contribution is web design and technical consulting; the project also credits my 3D-printing contribution. The architectural design, diploma research, and project authorship are Mara’s, with supervisors and collaborators credited on the presentation.
What this demonstrates
A website can explain relationships that disappear when a project is reduced to a row of images. Interaction has a job: help someone understand the proposal, then inspect the evidence behind it.
The delivered outcome is an explorable presentation. Implementation of the proposed care facility and any clinical outcomes are outside the website’s scope.
