The idea behind the project was to create a safe haven where rehabilitation intertwines with the everyday lives of children. The architecture takes the form of a small village – close to nature, filled with light and space, where every young resident finds their own sanctuary. The forest nursery becomes a bridge between therapy and learning, opening a path to both the world of nature and inner harmony.

The residential part of the facility has been designed in the form of a small children’s village. Each of the twelve children has a private, fully equipped bedroom. To increase user comfort, en-suite bathrooms have been designed for children with disabilities.Since the residents are between twelve and eighteen years old, the interiors have been designed with teenagers in mind.
