design for the children - pediatric clinic model
east africa - selected
The pediatric clinic is developed as a “linear village” that coagulates along a crossing path.
The project is defined by several elements: the isolated volumes for the clinical functions, a double wall equipped for clinical services, both covered by a rising roof canopy. The wall is the limit between the medical and family areas.
The space in between the solid elements, as well as streets and square in a village, allows the circulation and the intersection of patients and medical fluxes. These squares, three for the phase one, have been thought as meeting point, waiting, teaching and recreational areas. Stefania Papitto
