VA Hospital Healing Garden
Fargo, North Dakota
This project involved a collaboration with North Dakota State University Landscape Architecture + Architecture students to create a healing garden space serving patients of the VA Hospital.
A studio of NDSU students helped to create initial design concept alternatives for the garden space and was led by Kathleen Pepple, assistant professor of landscape architecture and Joan Vorderbruggen, associate professor of architecture. Utilizing these concepts as a framework, our team crafted a master plan and design details to make this garden space a reality - creating a space that elevates human well-being.
The new healing garden integrates walking paths, raised gardens, a parade lawn, a pergola, gazebos, and sitting areas. The project provides space for rehabilitation, activities, and convalescence - while also encouraging fellowship and a place for respite.
