HOTEL APARTMENT TOWER AND MEDICAL COMPLEX Winter 2022

04

The project is a medical complex that aims to prioritize the mental and physical well-being of organ transplant patients. It is situated in a tower that also houses a 5-star hotel apartment, and has a direct urban connection to Jordan Hospital, one of the most important destinations for liver transplant operations.

The target users of the project are organ transplant patients, particularly those traveling for medical tourism.

The medical complex includes outpatient clinics specialized in the field of organ transplantation, a pharmacy, laboratories, radiographic imaging rooms, a physical therapy department, and an educational department. The hotel structure includes 5-star hotel apartments, library and public open spaces, recreational areas, restaurants, and gym and health facilities.

The project’s concept statement focuses on creating a healing architecture that prioritizes mental health alongside physical health. Empirical research has shown that natural daylight, contact with nature, and a pleasant indoor environment promote a sense of well-being that benefits patient recovery. The project also includes private and quiet areas where patients can discuss personal information or express their needs. A positive distraction is also an essential component of the project, which involves elements such as art, music, and outdoor facilities to provide patients with positive distractions and alleviate anxiety and stress.

The Refuge

A home for every Displaced

This micro-home represents the transition of a couple who came from a refuge background to a typical everyday urban life with an improved quality of life. This micro-home can be adapted to any urban context taking in consideration the financial and economical obstacles. Our inspiration came from the grid of the camps, which composes a highly structural and adaptable system, as can be observed in the many camps existing in the Middle East. The grid format was reflected both on the internal and external division, which allowed flexibility and practicality in furniture placement and alignment, by adding units that can be arranged in any way suitable for the couple, thus giving them an open space to merge the inside with the outside and enable them to freely carry out their hobbies and activities. The house can be adjusted according to the couple’s lifestyle and by opening it more light, air and nature, can enter the house.
