UNCHARTED WATERS A HOSPITAL IN SHENZHEN, CHINA

University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign School of Architecture ARCH 572 Behavior + Environment Spring 2014

Xili People's Hospital


FOREWORD In

response to the demand for private hospital beds in China, our team aimed for designing a private, “Western” style hospital in Shenzhen. The hospital program includes inpatient care (170 beds); diagnostic and therapeutic services; administrative and public areas; support services; and outpatient clinics accommodated in approximately 450,000 GSF. FGI Guidelines for Design and Construction of Health Care Facilities, were incorporated in designing the hospital. Physical Program of the hospital was amended in way to respond most effectively to the conditions unique to the Chinese healthcare environment. Design process began with defining the underlying themes and design objectives, guiding every design decision made throughout the development of the project. Contextual analysis of the site such as the socio-economic condition of the Xili neighborhood, were explored to help us recognize and highlight the community needs. By choosing “Providing Access to Nature in a Healthcare Setting” as the project’s fundamental theme -backed by primary research- the proposed design has responded to the health implications of fundamental environmental stressors in Chinese cities such as degraded air quality and related rise in respiratory disease. In this project we analyzed and amended the program to respond to emergency “surge” situations such as recent SARS and Avian Flu epidemics. Moreover, concepts of “Resiliency” has been analyzed and incorporated into the project.

Evidence Based Design Evidence-Based-Design (EBD) methodology played a major role throughout the design of this project, as environmental and behavioral peer-reviewed articles informed the project’s principal design decisions and directions. Some of the other concepts addressed in this project are: advocating for healthy community, bringing care to patient, enhancing user experience, and providing ample respite spaces for patients, family visitors, and clinicians. The state-of-the-art Xili People's Hospital will represent a new healthcare delivery, which embraces the philosophy of creating the focal point of wellness in its community. A place that offer education about wellness and a healthy lifestyle, a building that embrace its climate and context to minimize energy consumption, and a facility that utilize technology to achieve an efficient care delivery.

Faculty Advisor Prof. William Worn, AIA, LEED AP, EDAC Associate Professor, was the Director: Master of Architecture in Health Design at the University of Illinois at Chicago. In 2010, he joined the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign as an Associate Professor, while simultaneously continuing his role as President of Worn Jerabek Architects P.C.

BUILDING AND SITE DESIGN Our approach to the hospital’s site and building design is informed by local conditions. As a tropical, sustainable 21st century vision, the building and the landscape integrate several new sustainable features. The building designed to float over the site which not only provides an effective solution for natural ventilation in tropical areas but also connects the community to the green adjacent mountain. Below the elevated building, the combination of green and water features results in a tropical landscape with small seating areas and cafes scattered throughout the park. The underside of the floating structure becomes its main elevation from which sunken glass cubes, the so-called hospital courtyards, offer perfect views over the lush tropical landscape below.

We advocate a strong focus on solutions that in Shenzhen’s context yield vibrant interaction spaces that draw the community into the life of the hospital and engage the hospital in the life of the community. Of great importance in Shenzhen to both human comfort and energy efficient building design is the creation of natural ventilation, strong shade, and effective sun protection.

Our site design gives physical form to the philosophy of inclusiveness and respect for individual identity, yet aggregation of service and community manifested in the project as a whole. From the intimate patient healing gardens to the vibrant social space of the ground floor, the separation of family and nurse respites that support the public and hospital community are finally tuned to thematic gardens that act as effective way finding elements throughout the hospital.

A New Approach in Delivering Care

The façade of the building is a double layer system. The layers consists of vision insulated glass and an operable wooden brisole. The uniqueness of curtain wall is the design of brisole. The shades are adjustable horizontally as well as vertically allowing rotation over centerline. Moreover, the system is designed to be controlled by patient through an App which will provide a dynamic façade that responds to individual patient needs. There are several hinges along the perimeter of the building that are distinguished in the facade by red color. In addition to providing the filling of open ended corridors, these hinges divide arrays of patient rooms into smaller bed aggregations (12-bed, and 8-bed sections which is compatible with efficient nursing station ratios); they also allow the penetration of natural sunlight into the corridors and provide several soft space alongside the patient rooms.

HUMAN EXPERIENCE The term healing gardens is most often applied to green spaces in hospitals and other healthcare facilities that specifically aim to improve health outcomes. These gardens provide a place of refuge and promote healing in patients, families, and staff. According to two leaders in this field, Clare Cooper Marcus and Marni Barnes, healing comes because the gardens promote: Relief from symptoms, Stress reduction Improvement in overall sense of wellbeing and hopefulness. Any environment can promote healing, but gardens are particularly able to do so because humans are hard-wired to find nature engrossing and soothing. Healing gardens differ somewhat from therapeutic landscapes, which is another term used in healthcare. Therapeutic landscapes or gardens are designed to meet the particular needs of a specific patient population. They often engage that population actively and deliberately. Healing gardens, on the other hand, generally aim for a more passive involvement and are designed to provide benefits to a diverse population with different needs.

It has been proved that one way to judge successful design is by patients' willingness to describe themselves and their circumstances in a more positive emotion. The goal is to awake the positive feelings within the space, and to reduce any negative precieved notions first brought into treatment.

MEDIA POD DESIGN - NUCLEAR MEDICINE WAITING ROOM Adjustable Indirect Illumination

Acoustically friendly carpet

Custom RECLINER This recliner has been custom designed based on Hermanmiller Coalesse line to meet patients seeking immediate care in nuclear medicine imaging. Often times, patients undergoing nuclear injection are subject to hand foot syndrome.
