Healing Through “Qi” and “Earth”: The Gardens of Panzhou Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital

The concepts of “Qi” and “Earth” were carefully embedded within the landscape design. Its landscape design team aimed to satisfy the hospital’s functional needs and elevate its healing potential through the creation of modern therapeutic spaces for patients and healthcare workers to rest, relax, and meditate in. Understanding the effects of environmental factors on the human body, the project team utilized local materials to produce a design adapted to plant growth and seasonal changes.
