About the Project

creating calm above

a clinical setting

This project involved the full refurbishment of the existing rooftop garden at the Jubilee Wing, Leeds General Infirmary.

The aim was to create a high quality outdoor space that could support wellbeing while working within the technical and operational constraints of a live hospital site.

We supplied and installed porcelain decking laid on a roof deck system, along with decorative screens and bespoke planters to create a functional and welcoming environment.

The finished roof garden provides a calm and practical space for staff and visitors, demonstrating how well designed external environments can enhance healthcare settings while meeting the complex demands of a site such as LGI.

Design Intent

The roof garden was designed to provide a calm, functional outdoor space that supports wellbeing while remaining practical and durable. The use of porcelain paving and structured planters created a clean, modern finish that is easy to maintain and suitable for a healthcare environment, offering a valuable outdoor retreat for staff and visitors.
