The Design
About Almana Bolnica
Blage krivine zgrade omogućavaju prirodan protok prostora, vazduha i svetlosti. Dizajn kombinuje napredne prakse za osvetljenje, prirodno osvetljenje, HVAC i sisteme prečišćavanja vode koji koriste znatno manje energije uz performanse na nivou ili iznad trenutnih zdravstvenih standarda, sa ciljem od najmanje 50 procenata smanjenja potrošnje energije u poređenju sa sličnim objektima. Talasasti oblik pejzaža i omotač zgrade pružaju izuzetnu isceljujuću vezu sa prirodom, iznutra i spolja, ne samo sa aspekta pacijenata, osoblja i posetilaca, već i sa aspekta održivosti.

At the organizational level, healing environments can help enhance employee recruitment, satisfaction, productivity, and retention.
- Research
- Flexible and adaptable
clear functional zoning, segregate internal user and logistic flows, size rooms for flexible usage, staff and patient entrances.
Operationally efficient
lean design, modular arrangements, design repetition, smaller facilities, cost effective aiming for, streamlined service, faster response times, improved outcomes, improved patient turnover.
Safety by design
nothing touches the floor, integrated, touch technology, surface minimization, seamless wall finish systems ,ease to clean surfaces, disinfection.
Patient centric healing environment
large open space concourses, natural light and space lifts the mood, flexibility for peak capacity. - Inspiration
- The gentle curves of the building allowing for the natural flow of space, air and light. The design combines advanced practices for lighting, day-lighting, and water treatment systems that use significantly less energy while performing at or above current health standards, with a target of at least 50 percent energy reduction compared to similar facilities.
The undulating landscape form and building envelope provide a great healing connection to nature, inside and out, not only from patient, staff and visitor aspects, but from a sustainability aspect. The design creates a clear separation of zones of activities, with departments and functions located based on access point proximity, flow and way-finding. All patient rooms and staff spaces provide access to outside views and landscaped terraces.
The design melded spaces and forms into continuous, dynamic constructions. Moreover, it furthered the approach by weaving curved walkways and vertical elevators together so that the architecture itself guides visitors through the related departments - Project Duration
