Project
Overview
Iceboat Studio designed this 10,000 sq.ft. mixed use building with basement, ground, first and second floor as hospital and third floor as residence. This 50 bedded hospital consists of 8 bed daycare room, 10 bed ICU, 7 bed general ward, casualty room, medical store, 2 cabin, TMT room, ECG/X-RAY room, lab, staff room, 4 special rooms, 2 semi special rooms, nursing station, store, 60 people waiting area and canteen. Though small scale, this project was done in Revit benefiting client to be able to visualise the project in 3D right from concept design stage. We also modelled the structural part in Revit resulting in better coordination and error free execution.

Design
Development
For healthcare projects the functionality of spaces plays an important part of the design process. We designed a centrally located service core with staircase and stretcher lift opening to the circulation areas serving the rooms located at the periphery. Medical store and casualty are planned on the ground floor keeping in mind the accessibility for outside visitors. OPD and exam rooms on first floor are interconnected internally for ease of movement of the doctor. We have taken utmost care while designing the ICU maintaining dust free and clean environment. General ward and special rooms are designed on the second floor with centrally located nursing station. The third floor residence consists of 5 bedrooms, 4 baths, living room, kitchen and dining. A family sit-out area opens to a large terrace providing access to the outdoors.
The modern style façade of the building emphasizes simplicity. The white wall panels cover most part of the building. The wood wall panels add sophisticated and natural appeal of the building. Dark coloured wood panels are used to accentuate the deep- seated windows. The vertical grilles are designed to hide the plumbing shafts but also serves as an architectural element breaking the façade into multiple parts. The corner windows take ample light indoors.
Let's explore possibilities and goals together to shape a clear path forward.
