Janet Rosenberg & Studio Creates a Secret Rooftop Healing Garden for Cancer Patients

It was a delicate brief: design a healing garden for the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre on the hospital’s 14^th floor – with no provisions for water or maintenance. Landscape architect Janet Rosenberg & Studio looked to nature for inspiration and found a poetic solution: colourful hand-blown glass flowers fabricated by Fuel Glassworks arranged outside patient’s windows.

Framed by geometric boxwood parterres, the everlasting blooms each correspond to a traditional Victorian sentiment: pink for compassion, purple for strength, red for courage.
