Social Prescription by Cai Hall is a Part II architecture thesis about community, health and wellbeing in a non-clinical setting.
The project was developed through collaboration with volunteers and users of a community project, creating a proposal to expand services and provide spaces where people can live, work and come together.
The project idea
Cai’s thesis focuses on architecture as a support system for health and wellbeing. Instead of treating care as something separate from everyday life, the project creates an access point for local support in a setting that feels civic and approachable.
The work also builds on Cai’s interest in residential and community architecture, existing buildings and historic contexts.

Architecture Social view
Stephen’s recruiter view is that community architecture projects need to show user evidence. If a thesis is built around real volunteers, services and needs, that should be visible in the story.
