St Vincent's Hospital Visit

Last Tuesday, we visited the garden at St Vincent's hospital.
There were two areas, one with a sloped landscape with lots of grass for seating and sunshine and the other which was shady with scattered blocks of concrete for seating with a gravel landscape. 


From our observation, it seemed like the former area was a lot more occupied. This supports our finding that over designing a garden space is less attractive than one that is more natural and fluid.
