Another notable spatial feature is the series of butterfly-inspired pavilions distributed throughout the campus. Strategically located along major pedestrian routes, these pavilions serve as both functional shelters and visual landmarks that aid navigation within the large healthcare development.

The distinctive architectural design enhances the campus identity while providing comfortable gathering and resting spaces for patients, visitors and staff. The central pavilion located adjacent to the Amphitheatre functions as a community event space that supports social activities, performances and community engagement programmes. This demonstrates how spatial design can successfully combine functionality, wayfinding and social value to create a more welcoming and people-centred healthcare environment.
