About Taipei Medical University Hospital Notranjost zdravstvenega centra

Bolnišnica Univerze Taipei Medical je projekt notranje opreme za bolnišnico v Tajpeju na Tajvanu. Prostor obsega približno 595 kvadratnih metrov in je razdeljen na tri območja, označena s temeljnimi barvami – zeleno, oranžno in modro – pri čemer je vsako povezano z ločenim vhodom. Ukrivljene oblike, navdihnjene s kačjimi metuljevimi krili, oblikujejo strop in sledijo gibalnemu toku prostora. Nad avlo visi metuljeva instalacija iz titan-prevlečenih panelov z akrilnim jedrom in vgrajenimi lučmi, ki spreminjajo barvo. Kovinske rešetkaste ograje in neprekinjeni ukrivljeni kavči mehčajo celotno vzdušje prostora.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: The overall space is divided into three areas with their own theme color green, orange, and blue. Green denotes the main heightened lobby entrance; orange represents the second entrance, and blue represents the third entrance, which is mainly for the Chinese medicine outpatient area. Based on the hospital's existing building space, the designer extended the curves in the shape of butterfly wings and integrated them with the movement flow of the space. In addition to being a decorative spatial element for the ceiling, it also serves as a distinct visual marker for the hospital space.
Dimensions & Packaging: The project is 595.044 square meter.
Tags: Smart healthcare, theme color, curved sequence, metal grille, circular curve
Production Technology: The original glass railing on the heightened second floor was replaced with a metal grille. In addition to adding a textural layer to the space, it also visually obscures the chaotic and cluttered visual sensation when viewing the second floor from the first floor. It is also worth noting that the butterfly installation art hanging above the ceiling was changed from glass to titanium-plated panels with an acrylic base in the middle and embedded LED lights that change color in rotation, in consideration of subsequent safety issues.
Design Challenge: Any medical unit must maintain 24-hour operations, so the designer must consider the construction process to not interfere with the hospitals operating schedule. Therefore, the team could only enter the site on Friday evening every week and work all the way to 4 am. on Monday, including the cleaning of the construction site. A designated work crew was assigned to various locations and completed the work within the expected twelve and a half workdays over a six-week period. In addition, construction safety issues had to be considered during the process, with specific areas of fencing removed and temporary routes planned in advance that would not interfere with the hospitals operations, so as to maintain the hospitals normal operations.
Research: The existing harsh right angle of the building structure has been transformed into a circular curve. Above the corridor of the staircase, a lighting panel featuring natural scenes was also designed for the ceiling. It is hoped that these softened designs will transform the public's perception of the hospital as a cold and emotionless place.
Inspiration: In addition to viewing the site as a relay station of lifes migration, the designer believes that the transformation of the boundary between life and death is also the sublimation of the human condition. Therefore, the designer thought of the butterfly that completes its transformation by breaking out from its cocoon, and its beautiful wings and flying posture serves as the inspiration of the spatial context of the hospital. The designer hopes that the butterfly and migration will endow a new sense of reborn hope on the hospital, and a blessing for the next life.
Project Duration: The project finished in February 2018 in Taipei, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: The seating in the lobby was redesigned based on the concept of a tourist hotel. By replacing the original chairs with a continuous curved sequence of sofas, not only can hospital visitors freely enjoy comfortable positions, but the placement also responds to the streamlined spatial patterns.
