Paradise Regained

Project details

Programme
Unit Unit 4
Year 3

The mental health facility is designed as a modern-day Garden of Eden, aiming to heal and rejuvenate individuals with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), depression, and dementia. For children with ADHD, the facility creates a playful environment inspired by the Garden of Eden's four rivers. The garden of water represents life and energy, with water features and vibrant vegetation encouraging curiosity and adventure. Adults with depression find solace in the nurturing and rejuvenating garden of life, mirroring the Tree of Life's growth and renewal symbolism. The facility offers a peaceful setting inspired by the Tree of Knowledge for elderly people with dementia, promoting reflection and learning. Natural materials and planting enhance the supportive atmosphere. By drawing inspiration from the Garden of Eden and its trees, the facility fosters healing and recovery, guiding individuals towards well-being.
