]]> A multi center international hospital with a prominent focus on research as the core element of the project.  

Project focus:

1. Internationalization:

The trend of internationalization is to provide special services for population classification. The university- based centers for population and the medium-sized centers for organ classification form a three-dimensional matrix combination facilitate the organization of patients and doctors.

2. Smart:

The involvement of large-scale logistics system and intelligent system will make the position of the hospital’s specialized services more free. At the same time, the interaction between medical staff and researchers and the close connection of the back-court will become an important feature of the future intelligent hospital.

3. Research type:

The research advantage of the hospital is to rely on clinic. The design of the research pool in the clinical back-court closely links the whole hospital’s clinical and back-court research. Form a future-oriented scientific research bridge.

The site is situated in the centre of a valley and so the building form was kept low and echoed the forms of the surrounding mountains to respect the site conditions.  By placing all the transit functions in the basement the landscape is relatively free of obstruction and keeps the natural views more pure.  Natural timber cladding designed to age to silver to further blend the building into the natural surroundings.
