With the tree planting that bring better feeling to patients in the inner courtyard, they can be viewed from the lobby and entrance of the clinic. Furthermore, as the trees can also be seen from outside of the building through the deck, people walking by should also be able to feel the season’s change.  Image Courtesy © Hiroshi Ueda

The clinic and dwelling place are placed across each other with the inner courtyard in the middle however the directions of the eyes would not meet since they are in the different levels.

The floor of the dwelling place continuing flat to wood deck is the outcome of the careful consideration into details. The deep and low canopy top makes the proportion of the beautiful building. It also relates immensely to producing the sense of openness to the rooftop. We expect the trees growing big will provide nice leafy shade in summer, making the place of relief for the doctor and patients.
