Secret Garden

Inspired by the natural setting of Johnston Creek Parklands, the Walled Garden serves as a space of retreat for the citizens of Sydney, framing an intimate inner world apart from daily bustle. Within, varied building forms house distinct programs, organizing a series of gardens ranging from private to public. The wall's design, as if gently peeled away, invites people in. The architecture offers contemplative spaces for psychological recovery while also serving as a social connector, nurturing connections among strangers and creating a shared space for community and reflection. It harmonizes personal contemplation with the collective need for connection and belonging.
