Children’s Mercy + Camber Mental Health: The facility’s four secure exterior courtyards feature anti-climb wire mesh for safety while preserving open views of nature. Designed to promote wellness, the courtyards provide patients safe outdoor access for fresh air, light, and calming views. Durable, earth-toned wood-look paneling and stone veneer blend with the landscape. Biophilic elements such as turf and seating in rounded organic shapes, together with ligature-resistant furnishings, support therapy, recreation, and reflection in a restorative, non-institutional setting.
