FRAME OF MIND

摘要

The Flanders village of Melle, a few kilometres outside Ghent, lies in the midst of a tangle of highways, canals, industrial estates and fields, an environment typical of the Low Countries. Just outside Melle, nestling in woods, is the Caritas psychiatric centre, a residential hospital for patients of all ages and a wide variety of care needs. The hospital has occupied the site since 1908, when it was built as a series of different "pavilion' buildings, each housing a different programme of treatment and care.
