Description
The project for the Plateau Specialist Hospital is a complex intervention with strong humanitarian and social ambitions. The development of the concept has required a multidisciplinary and integrated approach from our design team. Nature is the keystone element of the design proposal, featuring different volumes that are divided accordingly to their functions. The project clearly recalls the local construction styles and techniques, while successfully engaging a new contemporary approach. An accurate bioclimatic study of the indoor and outdoor spaces make this design an example for sustainable architecture, focal aspect of a building devoted to the healthcare of people.
