Psychological problems in adolescents to young adults are very concerning compared to other age groups. Referring to UU No. 18 Tahun 2014, is to do Mental Health Action Plan with promotive, preventive, curative and rehabilitative approaches. In this case, the design of facilities that prioritize physical exercise is a preventive effort that is most suitable for the lifestyle of adolescents to young adults. With Nature Connectedness approach, which uses nature as a place and disease prevention agent, the design of the Wellness Center facilitates young people in Bandung about their needs for a place to do physical exercise and socializing that is open to nature. The design concept that reconnects nature with humans and reactivates the need to socialize with each other, is expected to reduce the number of psychological problems in adolescents to young adults, especially in the city of Bandung.
