Bridge Young People with Nature

Types of Industry: Education Industry
The Client: Hubbub
The Designer: Huiyu Chang 
The Project Aim: To find a way to inspire young adults to engage with nature regularly
Time: 2020-2021

  With the rapid development of new technology, the young generation's living area has primarily moved indoors. Nowadays, individuals spend most of their time on social media without exploring their surrounding natural world. 

 

  The disconnection to green space leads to diminished senses, attention difficulties, and higher physical and emotional illness rates. Additionally, people fail to understand the importance of our life and lose interest to protect the environment. Therefore, the priority is to discover a solution to encourage young adults aged 18-25 to reconnect with nature.
