Riga Psychiatry and Narcology Centre entrance nod public space reconstruction

Conceptual basis for entrance nod public space reconstruction project – healing/ therapeutic/butterfly garden - symbiosis of Sarkandaugava neighbourhood and RPNC identity. This room is Prologue and representation. Plants were selected in co-operation with entomologists from Nature museum – herbaceous plants with white flowers, attracting butterflies. As well plants have been selected so that garden is in blossom from early spring till late autumn, keeping their decorativity also during winter. Entrance nod is created according to all healing garden principles.
