The Breast Cancer Now Garden: Through the Microscope is a space for a small team of research scientists. The garden draws inspiration from breast cancer researchers working in the lab, in particular looking through their microscopes in their quest to stop breast cancer taking more lives.
The garden shows a future where all cells viewed through a microscope are healthy. Jagged rocks at the front of the garden depict breast cancer. The three vertical circles represent microscope lenses aligned to focus on a black microscope slide at the back of the garden and a circle of magnified healthy cells. At the back of the garden, scientists can sit on organic cellular-shaped seats and the back wall is a surface on which to draw and share ideas. The planting scheme and cell shapes illustrate the idea of magnification. Planting at the front of the garden has small and medium foliage with larger foliage at the back.
