| DESIGN NAME: MedVie PRIMARY FUNCTION: Health Care INSPIRATION: The project was inspired by two "wings" that open to the corner seeking to be a space for the community and embracing your surroundings as well as the user. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The entire complex is arranged along a central axis diagonally to the corner. This axis, in addition to organizing the spaces, also directs people to the interior of the building and its large central lobby where shops, cafes, clinics and a day hospital are integrated in a wide space bathed by natural light. This pleasant space ends up "oxygenating&qu OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The Brazilian people generally have a perception of medical buildings as cold spaces with negative connotations. In addition, because the patient is fragile due to their physical or mental situation, experience in these spaces often becomes unpleasant. So MedVie Medical Center seeks to change that perception by humanizing a complex and technologically advanced building with an attractive, accessible and supportive concept, creating a positive space capable of acting as a center of social activity, not just a medical center, and providing a welcoming environment for patients and healthcare professionals. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The MedVie project is located in the city of Caxias do Sul, in the extreme South of Brazil. The architectural project is going to be completed in 2017 and the deadline of construction is in 2021. FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Architecture, Building and Structure Design |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The Medvie architectural project was carried out on the BIM platform, where all the volume was tested, as well as the compatibility with the other complementary projects. In addition, a physical model of 9.00 m was built for the sales stand. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: The structural system of the project is in reinforced concrete. Its outer shell will be composed of high performance glasses, composite aluminum panels, and sandstone cladding from the region at the base of the building. The total area of the project is 3,0541,45 m² spread over 12 floors, with 244 medical offices, 18 single-story shops and 444 parking spaces. TAGS: Medvie, health care, brazil, caxias do sul, Torres e Bello, Torres & Bello, censi RESEARCH ABSTRACT: A survey was conducted with the target public of medical professionals and patients about the needs and expectations of future users of the medical center, where a great desire was identified for the creation of a pleasant and peaceful not-like hospital environment. In order to reach this objective, a smaller volume for the building was chosen, near the human scale, and environments bathed by natural light and integrated with green areas. CHALLENGE: The biggest challenge in the development of the project was to create an environment that was not cold and technological, for an extremely complex program that would break the paradigm of the traditional health complexes in Brazil.
