The Giving Tree is a pediatric clinic in Yonago, Tottori, Japan. The building is designed to resemble a forest, with wall patterns that evoke trees and mountains. Two separate entrances and separate toilets are provided for general patients and patients with infections, so that the two groups do not cross. The examination rooms sit at the centre of the plan and have rounded ceilings that filter natural light. A wooden deck reached from the waiting room serves as a play area. Long eaves shade the large south window in summer.
