Project location
Pilgrim Hospital, Boston
Aims and Outcomes
The unit's waiting area afforded little privacy and there was no access through to the adjoining garden. The aim of the project was therefore to enhance the seating area, to increase privacy and to improve access to the garden.
A bright colour scheme was chosen and the lighting and general décor improved.
A partial glass brick wall now screens the seating area and a folding glass door has greatly improved access to the garden.
As part of the scheme the planting has been updated, and better use has been made of the partly sunken area in the middle of the garden. New benches, tables and a parasol have been provided, and the new access ensures that the garden is now being well used by in-patients and visitors alike.
