The warm, taupe colored, asymmetic curving walls and stainless seating give
a sense of holding. The 'plan' here embodies the human-made gesture of the original
drawing and stainless sculpture. Despite the materials, there is a sense of
'humaness' to the space.
The inscription In
Healing Mind and Body Enfold One Another
is placed on the left wall.
