About Daiichi Беморхона

Daiichi як бинои беморхонаест, ки дар шаҳри Химеҷии Ҷопон ҷойгир аст. Сохтмони ҳафтошёна ҷои блоки кӯҳнаро гирифта, сад катро дар бар мегирад. Фасади сӯрохдор ҳамчун варақи тунук коркард шуда, дар якчанд қабат такрор мешавад, ки ин ба бино умқ мебахшад ва симои вазнинеро, ки одатан бо меъмории беморхонаҳо алоқаманд аст, мулоим мекунад. Кунҷи қабат-қабат ба шакли кунҷдори қитъа ҷавоб дода, даромадгоҳи асосиро ишора мекунад. Сатҳҳои сафед барои ифодаи покизагӣ ва ором кардани беморон истифода шудаанд. Шабакаи болорҳо ва сутунҳои металлӣ биноро дастгирӣ карда, ба қоидаҳои қатъии бехатарӣ аз заминларза ҷавобгӯ аст.

Unique Properties
The new replacement building for Himeji Daiichi Hospital is built next to the late 1960s block that is planned to be demolished after moving to the new building. The idea behind this project is to bring some modernity and lightness to the old institution and to change the heavy monolithic image of hospital buildings. This is done by creating a porous facade that is treated as a sheet and repeated to create the depth of the building.
Dimensions & Packaging
Gross Built Area: 2239sqm
W55100mm x D29777mm x H29910

Production Technology
The 7 stories building is supported by a grid of metallic beams and pillars. Since Japan is prone to earthquakes the building is design with extra safety measure. The facade is covered by cladding panels from KMEW. The interior is built using drywall techniques and was finished with a variety of materials including tiles, vinyl floor, vinyl wall cloth, wooden panels, platina panels, melamine board, and mirrors.
Design Challenge
The challenge of this project is to design and build a fully functional 100 beds hospital that responds to the newest Japanese regulations regarding earthquake and fire safety, using a very limited budget and yet produce a space that tends more towards hospitality rather then medical. Finding the middle ground between small luxury, efficiency, cost effectiveness, limited footprint, and extremely regulated spaces.
Research
The main challenge with this project is to break up with the monolithic block representative of modern hospitals and shift the interior towards a more anxiety free hospitality driven spaces. While aiming to achieve this the design needed to still obey the very strict healthcare functionality of a modern hospital and keep the tight budget under control. The available land area had an irregular shape creating efficiency complications that needed to be overcome.
Inspiration
The design was inspired by its site. the shape of the available land area and its angular position toward the main road inspired the repetition of the main facade in several layers as a corner treatment that would be an eye catcher for the people driving along the road but also for the pedestrians walking by. The white color dominance is inspired by the cleanliness, the hygiene, and its psychological effect on the patients.
Project Duration
Project start: July 2018.
Construction starts: December 2021.
Project/Construction End: March 2023.

Location:
Himeji City, Japan.
Operation Flow

The following floors are for the inpatient rooms. The sixth floor houses the rehabilitation room, the kitchen and dining areas, and offices. The seventh floor is technical.
