Renovation and Extension of the Sipeki Balás Villa / Atelier dmb

Hadir Al Koshta — Tue, 05 May 2026 03:00:00 +0000

The project involves the renovation and extension of the Sipeki Balás Villa, designed by Hungarian architect Ödön Lechner between 1905 and 1907, with the addition of a new service building. The Hungarian Association of the Blind and Partially Sighted inherited the property from the villa's original owner and has been using the house for nearly a century. The headquarters of the association is located in the villa, while the services are on the ground floor of the new extension, which also houses a 300-person event hall on the upper level.

Resmile Dental Wellnss / space+craft

Miwa Negoro — Sat, 02 May 2026 17:00:00 +0000

Among the architectural programs most rigidly defined by function, dental clinics rank among the most demanding — bound by hygiene standards, clinical circulation requirements, and the psychological weight patients carry before even stepping through the door. Bangkok-based architecture and interior design studio space+craft confronts these constraints head-on. Within a mere 37 square metres, Resmile Dental Wellness is not simply a clinic. It is a deliberate interrogation of what healthcare architecture can — and should — feel like.

Dental Seny / David Hernandez Arquitectura

Valentina Díaz — Sat, 02 May 2026 11:00:00 +0000

The renovation of the Dental Seny clinic proposes a contemporary reinterpretation of the dental space, understanding architecture as a tool to transform the patient experience. Beyond an aesthetic update, the project presents a precise spatial strategy where identity, function, and atmosphere are integrated into a clear and legible structure.

Paramedical Training Institute and Parking Structure / VIB Architecture

Pilar Caballero — Wed, 15 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

A school attentive to living systems
Training for healthcare professions implies designing a place capable of supporting demanding learning processes, intense work rhythms, and a daily relationship with people. In Évreux, the new Eure Paramedical Training Institute (IFPE) embodies this ambition through architecture that integrates state-of-the-art educational and technological facilities, attentive to its young users, its landscape context, and current environmental challenges, where the human dimension of the project is closely intertwined with landscape and living systems.

Obstetrics in Nanakuma / Yoshitaka Suzuki and Associates

Miwa Negoro — Sun, 12 Apr 2026 21:00:00 +0000

An obstetrics facility in an urban area. Here, we combined the methods listed below to attempt to create a kind of "geography"—a sequence of diverse atmospheres and environments that evoke the sensation of walking through the terrain or the city streets. Through these elements, we aimed to create a place where visitors and residents feel at ease, liberated, comfortable, and supported, with a sense of discovery.

Senior Citizens' Home in Nový Bydžov / Architektura

Valeria Silva — Sat, 04 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The client's brief was to design a new retirement home on the site of a former orchard adjacent to a hospital. The building is conceived as four independently functioning households for approximately 60 residents, fully barrier-free. An orchard and brick walls near a cemetery with a church, a historic town with a beautiful town hall. Tall trees. And then old age as a phenomenon—calm, silence, brick as the archetype of home. The proximity of the hospital and cemetery may invite bitter associations; here, however, we see quality, an image of quiet and contemplation, an image of the peaceful edge of town. A chateau-like, symmetrical, almost classicist layout brings atriums, gardens, views, and abundant daylight into the Home. Old age is one of today's European themes. How do we approach ageing? What do we do for older people, how do we perceive them, what do we offer them, and what do we ask of them? What is it like to be an elderly person in the Czech Republic in 2026?

Wave 4 & 5 - ECR Health Care Complex / FAAB

Hadir Al Koshta — Thu, 02 Apr 2026 12:00:00 +0000

Wave 4 and 5 at the ECR Health Care Complex in Sopot, Poland, are designed around a single conviction: that the built environment can actively support patient recovery.

The Extension Atelier / MAVA design

Hadir Al Koshta — Sun, 29 Mar 2026 11:00:00 +0000

A beauty salon focused on hair extensions, located in the residential complex Unit Home. The project began with an empty shell space. The main task was to create a logical layout with a clear separation between open and private zones - a challenge due to the large number of columns in the center of the room.

Brisbane Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery / Studio Collective

Miwa Negoro — Fri, 20 Mar 2026 02:00:00 +0000

Brisbane Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery's new flagship in the heart of the James Street precinct redefines healthcare interiors through the lens of boutique hospitality design. Interior designers Studio Collective have replaced clinical cues with a softer, more refined design language, drawing on warmth, tactile materiality, and a human-centred approach to care.

Reach Hospital Lounge / Sherpa

Miwa Negoro — Sun, 15 Mar 2026 02:00:00 +0000

The lounge at Rich Oriental Hospital is a space where patients reside. Many patients in hospital rooms share a common space with others, limiting their time and movement. We aimed to convey a sense of visual pleasure and liberation through spatial transitions that relieve the frustration patients may feel in their hospital rooms.

Nafas-e-No (New Breath) Clinic / Event office

Miwa Negoro — Sat, 14 Mar 2026 21:00:00 +0000

Nafas-e-No (New Breath) is a project located in the heart of Babol — a transformation of an old traditional house into a contemporary psychotherapy clinic. The design approach merges local architectural identity with a modern functional program. The preserved brick façade, alongside a minimal interior palette of white surfaces and soft green details, creates a calm, neutral, and bright atmosphere—supporting focus, dialogue, and psychological healing.

UNSW Health Translation Hub / Architectus

Miwa Negoro — Sat, 14 Mar 2026 17:00:00 +0000

The UNSW Health Translation Hub (HTH) is conceived as a landmark for innovation, collaboration, and community, an architectural and landscape response that bridges the UNSW Kensington Campus with the Randwick Health and Innovation Precinct (RHIP). The design unites education, research, and healthcare within a connected ecosystem that fosters knowledge exchange and translational health outcomes, which shortens the feedback loop between health research and clinical practice. Subsequently, the discoveries from the laboratory ("bench") to patient care ("bedside") and vice versa are more efficient, ultimately, leading to improved health outcomes for the community.

El Retiro Spa / Mendiola Arregui

Valentina Díaz — Thu, 12 Mar 2026 15:00:00 +0000

This project is born as a retreat space, conceived from introspection. A personal and private spa in the mountains of Tapalpa, where the architecture deliberately renounces the idea of a façade: there is no gesture towards the outside, no frontal composition. The building seeks not to be seen, but to be inhabited.

CREST NINE Community Center / Sanjay Puri Architects

Pilar Caballero — Thu, 12 Mar 2026 07:00:00 +0000

Situated on a steeply contoured hill overlooking the Ocean in Anjarle, Maharashtra, India, Crest Nine is a community centre designed as a recreational hub for a gated villa enclave. The site drops sharply from the approach road, allowing the building to emerge gradually from the natural terrain, rather than sit upon it.

Care Villa / FELT architecture & design

Hadir Al Koshta — Sat, 07 Mar 2026 09:00:00 +0000

An existing villa forms the starting point for the transformation into a care home for people with mental health challenges. Stripped down to its bare structure, the house loses its roof and finishes, revealing the simple logic of parallel walls. This structure becomes the framework for a new plan, where a generous corridor connects a sequence of independent studios.

Hospital of the Smart Health Care City / Michel Rémon & Associés + ARCHIMATH

Hadir Al Koshta — Wed, 04 Mar 2026 04:00:00 +0000

In 2009, under the vision of His Majesty King Mohammed VI and as part of the great development projects of the UM6P Group, the Mohammed VI Green City was set in motion. From its first breath, it aspired to become more than a place: a world-class academic pole, a living ecosystem of knowledge, where learning, innovation, and an exemplary ecological lifestyle would grow side by side. Rooted in its territory yet reaching far beyond it, the city was imagined at once as local and national, intimate and ambitious.

Nirava Ayurveda Holistic Centre / STAPATI

Miwa Negoro — Tue, 03 Mar 2026 03:00:00 +0000

Part of the renowned Krishnendu Ayurveda Hospital, the ~21,000 sq. ft. Nirava Ayurveda Holistic Centre is envisioned as an oasis of healing, rooted in tradition and elevated through thoughtful innovation. Conceived as an immersive wellness retreat, the master plan unfolds in two distinct yet interconnected volumes: a villa block comprising twelve serene guest rooms and a gracefully curved spa block housing therapy suites. Each structure is carefully positioned to preserve and embrace the mature trees that define the site's lush, tropical character, allowing architecture and landscape to exist in quiet harmony.

New Ontinyent Hospital / Contell-Martínez Arquitectos + Manuel Vega Arquitectos

Valentina Díaz — Fri, 27 Feb 2026 12:00:00 +0000

The new Hospital of Ontinyent is located to the south of the municipality, in the "Casa Balones" industrial area, in a heterogeneous zone of buildings, farming areas, and some facilities.

Center for Health / Dorte Mandrup

Pilar Caballero — Tue, 24 Feb 2026 12:00:00 +0000

The new Center for Health in Copenhagen combines plenty of daylight, natural materials, greenery, and room for movement and community to support rehabilitation and treatment of lifestyle-related diseases. Designed by Danish architecture studio Dorte Mandrup, the building features an impressive central space, formed by the sculptural rhythm of 15-meter-high timber arches.

Children and Family Support Center Terra / D.A.

Miwa Negoro — Fri, 20 Feb 2026 03:00:00 +0000

Located in Kofu City, this facility offers three distinct services: consultation for disadvantaged families and children within the community, medical counseling, and staff training. These three functions are performed separately in three buildings: the Center Building consists of consultation rooms and administrative offices and serves as an operational hub overseeing the entire facility; the Clinic Building is where medical counseling is provided, and the Training Building is dedicated to professional training for all staff members of the organization managing the center. The construction was carried out in two phases. In Phase 1, the Center Building and the Clinic Building were completed in 2021. In Phase 2, the Training Building was completed in 2022.

Allergology Department - Hospital of Navarre / GVG Estudio

Valentina Díaz — Sat, 14 Feb 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The intervention covers a formerly useless area on the fourth floor of the Hospital de Navarra Emergency building. This area is composed of two similar volumes, now occupied by the new allergology unit.

Connecting Gallery for the Les Verdaines Retirement Home / Agence Vulcano-Gibello

Hadir Al Koshta — Mon, 09 Feb 2026 12:00:00 +0000

Although modest in scale, the project is set within a remarkable context. It seeks to link two building wings constructed in the early 20th century, whose architecture evokes the spirit of the *Belle Époque*.

Bagchi Karunashraya Palliative Care Center / Mindspace

Miwa Negoro — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 06:00:00 +0000

Bagchi Karunashraya, meaning "Abode of Compassion", is a hospice care facility located in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, dedicated to providing free and quality palliative care to terminally ill cancer patients. The center stands as a compassionate response to end-of-life care—deeply rooted in the philosophy, "Where there is no cure, there is care." It is a place where architecture, nature, and human dignity converge to create a healing environment.

Indigenous Hub / BDP Quadrangle + Two Row Architect + Stantec Architecture + ERA Architects

Hadir Al Koshta — Wed, 14 Jan 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The Toronto Indigenous Hub emerges as an urban landmark where architecture, healing, and reconciliation intertwine in an unprecedented comprehensive proposal. Located in the Canary District, this 40,000 m² development occupies an entire block and integrates an Indigenous Community Health Center, two mid-rise residential buildings —Canary House and Birch House, with a total of 400 homes—, the Miziwe Biik Training Institute, a civic plaza, and the Indigenous Peoples Garden Patio. It is a carefully designed urban ecosystem aimed at serving and strengthening Toronto's urban Indigenous community, estimated at around 70,000 people.
