The Retreat was conceived of as a place “to get away from it all without leaving the city.” The project was designed to foster somatic discovery. Though no larger than a studio apartment, the amenities have been arranged so that a guest can not perceive the entire space from one perspective.
The garden was designed to provide guests with an opportunity to connect with nature in an urban environment. A combination of aromatic and edible plants frame the patio seating area and the sonorous Chinese gong.
