Bardarash Hospital

Duhok University - Collage of engineering - Architectural Department

Project idea

Hospital project concept leverages the inherent strength, psychological benefits, spatial efficiency, and ease of construction associated with geometric shapes inspired by DNA and chromosomes. By abstracting these shapes into two L shapes and incorporating a chessboard grid in the elevation design. This approach combines biology and architecture to create a distinctive and robust hospital design.

Project description

The addition of the chessboard grid in the elevation design adds a distinctive touch, resulting in a hospital that is both structurally sound and visually striking, while also promoting a healing and welcoming atmosphere, aiming to create a visually appealing and functional healthcare facility.

Technical information

-Spatial Efficiency: Geometric shapes are known for their efficiency in space utilization. By abstracting DNA and chromosome-inspired designs into two L shapes, you're optimizing the spatial layout of the hospital. This allows for more efficient use of floor space, better organization of medical facilities, and smoother patient flow, ultimately enhancing the hospital's functionality.
-Chessboard Grid Elevation: The integration of a chessboard grid in the elevation design adds a unique visual element to the
hospital's exterior. This grid can represent a sense of order and precision, which is
crucial in a healthcare environment. It also offers an aesthetic appeal, contributing to the hospital's overall design.
-Psychological Impact: The use of these shapes can have a psychological impact on both patients and staff. DNA and chromosomes are symbols of life and growth, evoking feelings of hope and positivity. Incorporating these shapes into the hospital's design can contribute to a healing and comforting atmosphere, benefiting the well-being of patients.
