The door in

WILLOW DOME, Merlin Park hospital.


I was asked to build a living willow dome.
The willow cut and planted in the winter will sprout and grow in the spring.
This structure provides an organic space and retreat.
Many people from the hospital enjoyed making this dome, and will continue to visit and weave back in the growing shoots, to provide a thicker and denser shelter.
Thanks to all who helped.
