Building a new hospital from the ground up is a rare opportunity for healthcare designers and planners. Most hospital projects are additions, renovations, or interior configurations.
A new hospital offers the opportunity to leverage insights for any healthcare space, new or renovated. From ways to make space part of the healing process, to finding innovative furnishings and employing design strategies for sustainability, the new Metro Health Hospital that opened for the first time in September, 2007 offers plenty of inspiration.
