This project was completed in two phases of construction. The pavement, furniture, flowers, and other landscape elements share a unified white color that evokes a doctor’s lab coat. A variety of textures add character and avoid a stuffy impression. The paths respond to the shape of the building, describing gentle arcs that represent motherhood and feminine softness. The four-leaf clover forms, which also appeared in the first phase of the project, symbolize peace as well as the cross of Christ who laid the foundations of nursing, and are used as furniture and experimental vegetable gardens.
