Biotech Medicinal Garden

PROJECT

The linear layout of the garden is based upon the electrophoresis patterns used in DNA analysis. All the plant species used have been used in medicine such as Willows used in aspirin and Taxus(Yews) for taxol and opiates used for opiates. The design integrates a network of paths and intimate seating spaces that meander through the garden.
