Proposed residential accommodation for up to 22 families of children receiving long term/acute care in the children's hospital. The project was a central part of a major redevelopment with key worker and private housing. The design creates a peaceful 'haven' for the families with a series of easy flowing sunny spaces with a clear identity to each different part of the building and a careful balance between private, shared and public spaces
