A Place to Wait

Opening context:
Interchange, Health Center, Small Services without Red Tape, Office Connections

Conflict

The process of waiting has inherent conflicts in it.

Resolution

In places where people end up waiting, create a situation which makes the waiting positive. Fuse the waiting with some other activity — newspaper, coffee, pool tables, horseshoes; something which draws people in who are not simply waiting. And also the opposite: make a place which can draw a person waiting into a reverie; quiet; a positive silence.
