Cultivating Optimism

In a post-COVID era, the accelerated decline of city centres by online shopping and WFH now sees the rise of experience-based retail and hospitality, shifting focus and finding new reasons to be.

With anxiety levels around travel and crowds still significant, how can we support people to feel ok while making a positive intervention for the planet?

Cultivating Optimism is an active meditation station concept, that uses colour, pattern and scent to promote not only feelings of personal well-being but to foster ‘prosociality and altruism’ (Goldy and Piff 2020, via OCED Forum).

This is a collaboration between Studio Justine Fox, MAMIMU and The Landscape Tailor.
