Approached by the PCH Foundation to design and construct a café within the new Perth Children’s Hospital was a golden opportunity to showcase our creative talents and attention to detail.
The challenge of creating an interior for both children and adults alike, where many are likely to be highly stressed and unwell was highly motivating. This resulted in a need to create a magical sanctuary that offered all age groups a place to escape from life’s harsh realities.
What better than a ‘Tree of Life’ to spread its warmth and encourage a focus on nature within a clinical environment?
