The Centrepoint Garden explores the notion of home and celebrates the charity’s work in supporting young people facing homelessness.  The evocative design offers a metaphor for the challenges faced by young people when their world becomes uprooted and fragmented and highlights how Centrepoint offers a healing process, supporting and nurturing young people, to enable them to grow and realise their potential. 

The central structure of the Centrepoint Garden is a demolished and now ruinous house, where over time nature has taken over and begun to heal the scars. Within the garden Cleve will use a hierarchy of native and ornamental trees, shrubs, perennials, annuals, ferns, bulbs and wildflower, so-called, ‘weeds’. What, at first glance, may appear to be a dysfunctional and fragmented spac, is in fact a thriving, natural and evolving habitat, which emphasises the important role nature plays in making a house a home.
