OUTHOUSE design
THERAPEUTIC GARDEN DESIGNS FOR communal and HEALING SPACES
In a world where nature is increasingly recognized for its profound impact on our physical and mental well-being, our studio remains committed to crafting outdoor spaces and sensory experiences that nurture the body, mind, and soul.
As an advocate for wellbeing landscape design, OUTHOUSE design is privileged to have worked with many healthcare professionals over the past 10 years to transform underutilized outdoor spaces within hospital grounds, rehabilitation centers, aged care homes and animal shelters into communal and healing spaces that supports and promotes a sense of belonging, encourages social connections, and nurtures the mental health of people (and animals) from all walks of life!
The strength of our organization lies in our knowledge and understanding of design principles and process, the technical aspects of horticultural requirements and soil characteristics, and the implications of local government policies and procedures.
