Willamette Valley Hospital

McMinnville, Oregon




Our landscape design for the new Oncology Center at Willamette Valley Hospital features views to the natural environment from the treatment rooms while careful placement of ornamenal trees screen the patients from view, a fully landscaped therapeutic health track with picnic tables for visitor and staff breaks, and a donor funded birdbath and fountain.

Willamette Falls Hospital

Oregon City, Oregon



A new ER, Imaging and Pharmacy addition provided the opportunity to re-image and unify the whole campus landscape.   Patients now feel more connected with their natural environment through beautiful views and visitors are greeted with a soothing water feature and entry plaza where families can sit and wait for loved ones.

Sky Lakes Medical Center

Klamath Falls, Oregon



The Sky Lakes Medical Center incorporated a  number of Healing Environments both inside and out.  Visitors are greeted in the lobby with a beautiful courtyard garden and water screen.  Here the lobby completely surrounds this garden with views and access to the natural setting.     A center piece of this design is a 5,700 square foot healing garden on the second floor.  It features a variety of seating areas,  a shading arbor, quiet meditation areas, as well a labyrinth, all on the rooftop over the operating rooms.   Another rooftop terrace which overlooks the lobby courtyard is for the staff so they can get some fresh air and a break from their duties.  All of these gardens and the site landscaping were designed with plantings that were tolerant of the cold winters and hot summers characteristic of the Klamath Falls region.

Wallowa Community Hospital

The Wallowa Community Hospital project was a new ground up healthcare facility located in Enterprise, Oregon.  The landscape included a water feature at the entrance of the new medical center, site landscaping and a Healing Garden with walking trails and seating areas for staff, visitors and patients to gain access to the beautiful Wallowa views.  Our approach was sustainable in taking the stormwater runoff into naturalized creek/swales then flowing into a wetland pond.  Careful plant selections focused on native plants that would withstand the cold and snowy winters and fend off roving wild life.
