Holistic Landscapes

The project aims to develop a design and a method for planning the landscape around a psychiatric Institution, which will benefit the patients in their recovery process from various mental illnesses.
 
This diploma will look closer at the relationship between the built and the natural environment that is surrounding us and how it can be designed to have positive effects on our mental state and also support healing from various mental illnesses. The site that I am working with is Åsgård psychiatric hospital in Tromsø.
