Designed for children, young people, and their families, the eight-storey centre is the result of a close collaboration between King’s College London, South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust, and the Maudsley Charity — with input from service users shaping the project from the very beginning.

A calming, inclusive environment

With generous natural light, soft materials, acoustic control and outdoor terraces on every floor, the centre is designed to feel welcoming, intuitive, and safe. To support this vision, Vestre supplied a range of outdoor furniture carefully selected to blend into the landscape while encouraging connection and everyday use. Vroom and Code were chosen for their playful and modular configuration, including Vroom’s adaptable and customisable radius to fit the curved planters.

Built for people and planet

Just as the centre prioritises the long-term wellbeing of its users, the same values guided the selection of furniture. With certified materials, long product lifespans, and a clear commitment to sustainability, Vestre’s contribution supports the centre’s wider mission: to create a space that cares deeply — both socially and environmentally.

A new standard in mental health design

The Pears Maudsley Centre is more than a building — it’s a shift in how we think about healthcare spaces for young people. Vestre is proud to contribute to a project that redefines what inclusive, healing environments can look and feel like.
