Students from the Healthcare studio at Chalmers Architecture and Civil Engineering won the international Master of Architecture Award 2022 by Architects for Health, UK.
Kritsada Simcharoen, Alessia Fiorin and Anton Persson won the prestigeous price with their project Greenhearth Hospital, which is a proposal for a new community hospital in Gothenburg.
Judges’ comments:
“This scheme is very impressive and demonstrates a deep understanding of architectural design and place making. It delivers a remarkably complex and multilayered healing environment, that manages all aspects of the patient and visitor experience well. In every aspect it is a very mature design that could be built without much requirement for change.”
