However, research on null objects lacks a fuller perspective

Lunds sjukhusområde är ett stort och avskärmat område mitt i staden. Utemiljön domineras av bilar, hårdlagda ytor och saknar en mångfald av grönska, mötes- och sittplatser. Enligt enkätundersökningar gjorda inför det här projektet upplevs området som ogästvänligt och svårorienterat. Hur kommer det sig att ett område vars huvudsyfte är att läka, lägger så lite omsorg på utemiljön? I projektet före
