abstract
Background This paper presents an alternative creative solution to relieve stress expressed among university students living in dorms. By implementing art workshops and fostering a sense of community. This alternative approach aims to address the stress experienced by these students. Currently, the university fails to provide proactive measures or support to effectively deal with the students' stress, which often remains unaddressed due to their disincline to seek help. Recognizing the necessity for a sustainable and accessible service, this study suggests the implementation of “Brush on Grass”, a series of art workshops as a means of reducing stress and promoting social connections, particularly in the context of the pandemic. Methods The workshops aim to provide students with a creative outlet to manage stress and enhance their overall well-being. The workshops will take place in the green spaces of the campus, providing an opportunity to revitalize the campus landscape. Result Based on data collected through questionnaires, the art workshop, and interviews, this study formed an outline of “Poolbit”, which expands and encourages participation in the art workshops. Conclusion Therefore, this study explores the potential of service design to promote art-based workshops for stress management among university students in dormitories.
