The garden is a contemporary garden incorporating the concept of a refuge / a sunken bolt–hole or retreat to escape the often difficult daily grind that patients face. The delicacy and fragility of life and the coming together to support is the essence of the concept. This desire to embrace and support resonates with and is subliminally embedded in people of all ages, and is the inspiration for the sunken, embracing nature of the Crumlin Children’s Hospital garden.
