Y Dyluniad

Am The Ripple Prif Swyddogaeth: Hosbis

Testun y Llyfr: Mae'r Ripple yn gynnig hosbis sydd wedi'i strwythuro gan system ofodol cydganol a gynhyrchir o gwrt dŵr canolog. Wedi'i leoli yn Chinatown, Dinas Efrog Newydd, mae'r dyluniad yn ailddiffinio gofal diwedd oes fel profiad dinesig trefol yn hytrach nag fel sefydliad ynysig. Mae haenau o drothwyon, cwrtiau, a chaeadau pren yn arwain symudiad o fywyd cyhoeddus tuag at fyfyrdod tawel. Mae golau dydd cyfunol, dŵr, a strategaethau amgylcheddol goddefol yn creu llonyddwch synhwyraidd, gan gefnogi preifatrwydd, cyfeiriadedd, a lles emosiynol drwy bensaernïaeth ei hun.

Y Gydnabyddiaeth

Am y Gwobr Arian A' Design Award

Mae The Ripple Prif Swyddogaeth: Hosbis yn enillydd Gwobr Arian A' Design Award, cydnabyddiaeth hynod fawreddog a roddir i ddyluniadau o'r radd uchaf, hardd a thrawiadol. Mae enillwyr Arian yn weithiau tra disglair a hynod greadigol sydd yn darlunio arbenigedd, dawn a chraffter rhagorol eu dylunwyr. Disgwylir i The Ripple Prif Swyddogaeth: Hosbis fod yn waith gwych ac esiampl, yn nodedig o broffesiynol ac yn ddwfn arloesol.

Credydau, aelodau tîm a manylion technegol a ddarparwyd gan y dylunydd.

Priodweddau Unigryw: The Ripple reimagines hospice as an urban civic sanctuary structured by a concentric ripple geometry generated from a single water court. Architecture, structure, circulation, and environmental systems align within one continuous spatial logic, integrating hybrid timber construction, passive ventilation, and water reuse. The design transforms end-of-life care into a collective, sensory experience embedded within the life of the city.
Dimensiynau a Phecynnu: The project employs a hybrid timber system organized by concentric structural rings. Curved CLT load-bearing wall segments rise from a continuous concrete foundation datum, supporting stepped roof bands with integrated skylights, photovoltaic tiles, and rainwater collection gutters. Environmental systems include stacked passive ventilation, hydronic radiant floor slabs, and on-site water filtration and reuse.
Tagiau: Hospice, Healthcare Design, Sensory experience, Therapeutic environment,
Technoleg Cynhyrchu: The project was developed through an integrated design methodology where geometry, structure, and environmental systems evolve from a single concentric datum. Digital modeling and iterative sectional studies guided spatial, daylight, and airflow performance. A hybrid timber system using curved CLT wall segments, cavity assemblies, and a continuous concrete base enables structural clarity while integrating rainwater collection, passive ventilation, and radiant conditioning within one coordinated assembly.
Her Dylunio: The primary challenge was reconciling hospice care’s need for privacy and calm with the density and intensity of an urban Chinatown context. Social perceptions of hospice as isolated institutions required rethinking care as civic and accessible. Spatially, integrating sensory comfort, acoustic privacy, and environmental performance within a compact site demanded precise coordination of structure, water systems, and daylight. The project resolves these tensions through a unified geometric and environmental strategy.
Ymchwil: Design research combining healthcare design and environmental psychology. Objective: improve patient privacy and emotional comfort in hospice settings. Methodology explored spatial sequencing and sensory design strategies. Experiential scenarios tested water sound as a non-visual privacy buffer.
Ysbrydoliaeth: The Ripple is inspired by the universal image of a water drop generating expanding rings, symbolizing the continuity of life, memory, and collective care. Research into hospice environments, sensory psychology, and traditional courtyard typologies informed a design that replaces institutional isolation with spatial calm, gradual thresholds, and communal presence, integrating cultural reflection with environmental performance.
Hyd y Prosiect: The project was developed between September 2025 and Janurary 2026 as part of an architectural design competition. The Ripple is located in Chinatown, New York City, where it reimagines hospice care within a dense urban context. The proposal explores how end-of-life care can integrate with everyday civic life through architecture, landscape, and community-oriented programming.
Llif Gweithrediad: Movement through Ripple follows expanding concentric rings, guiding visitors from the active city edge toward increasing quiet and intimacy. Thresholds, courtyards, and water elements choreograph gradual emotional transition rather than abrupt separation. Daylight, airflow, and acoustic water features respond passively to occupancy and climate, supporting orientation, privacy, and calm—allowing care to unfold through spatial experience rather than institutional control.
