This project is modern architecture design “the new state of the art national heart centre in singapore” by Broadway Malyan (an international firm with offices in the UK – Europe – Middle East and Asia). The building is constructed using a modular method which will help expedite the construction phase of the project, features active hospital zones on the first six floors and administrative and research space on the upper four
levels. A key feature of the Heart Center lies in its abundance of open spaces that encourage interaction among patients, staff and workers. These spaces, namely courtyards and gardens, are fused with natural light and are naturally ventilated to complement the healing process. These spaces aim to socially connect all who use the building. The Center’s dynamic façade emphasizes these public areas as large portions of the skin seem to be peeled back to reveal the inner programs of the gardens. Users enter the hospital through a spacious and naturally lit reception area. The idea of openness is also carried through the main building as the halls are enlarged to create more circulation space. These enlarged passages serve a dual purpose as they maximize retail opportunities for users and create more space for operational efficiency for staff. [via]
