Description

A two story building of an animal hospital and the veterinarians house. We created several gardens around the building - garden for animals, backyard, garden for the dweller. Since those gardens are narrow, we rotated the building and created trapezoidal gardens so that those gardens could be wider space. The top/bottom edge of the metal screen at the site border changes in response to the surroundings and trims the view toward the outside of the site.
