The Cocoon Postnatal Care Center is wrapped into a sequency of gardens that follow the geometrical jig of the building on different heights embedded to each other. The whole set creates an intention of « fairy garden » atmosphere, with forest types of trees and vegetation, covering a timber cladding envelope.

Inside each of these garden terraces, the vegetation is contained into superimposed volumes of various dimensions, reproducing thus the entanglement of the gardens and construction at a smaller scale into the garden itself.

The façades are cladded with a thin wooden mesh. The choice of the material for the cladding allows a certain harmony of the building with its vegetal spaces, as well as a slight filtration of the light and views, added to the protection and thickness of the outdoor vegetations.
