BORROWED VIEW FOR SOUL

Borrowed View for the Soul: Merging Emotion and Environment for Cancer Patients

Cancer care centers in Hong Kong’s public hospitals often feel stark and sterile, evoking hopelessness. Our design transforms this experience by introducing a modern, multi-dimensional Chinese garden—an environment that nurtures both body and soul.

This reimagined space encourages patients to talk, plant, cook, share, and freely express emotions in nature’s embrace.

Engaging with social workers, family, and the therapeutic act of nurturing plants fosters lasting memories—instilling warmth, resilience, and hope in every patient’s heart.
