Abstract

Architecture is hard stuff. It is formed by walls, roofs, floors, all components of hard materials, stone, glass and wood. It distributes people in space and directs their doings and movements. Institutions are even harder stuff. Order is pushed a step further by the coerciveness of discursive architectural models and caring practices, restricting options to certain ways of thinking and acting. This book illuminates how people and spaces negotiate, and often challenge, regularities and patterns embedded in the meeting between architecture and institutions. It contains a number of essays by authors from disciplines such as human geography, architecture, planning, design, social work and education. The contributions discuss different examples from institutions in which care is carried out, such as assisted living facilities, residential care for children, psychiatric care facilities, hospitals, and prisons. By adopting a non-representational perspective, emergent practices render visible capacities of being flexible and mouldable, in which institutional architecture is defied, contested and transformed. New situations appear which transgress physical space in partnership with those who populate it, whether humans or non-humans. This book reveals the relational and transformative conditions of care architecture and the ways in which institutions transform (or not) into caring architecture.

Abstract

Interior architecture is the main factor in creating pleasant environments for in-patient healthcare. Whether in paediatric or geriatric wards, economic efficiency, patient well-being and staff satisfaction are increasingly the focus of treatment, healing and healthcare concepts around the world. Well-designed interior architecture concepts for patient rooms can benefit the patient's process of recovery and, through its atmosphere and functionality, improve the quality of the hospital experience. This book explores the design of the patient room as a core part of healthcare environments. It describes the different design components, such as material, colour, light and surface finish, and addresses the needs of hygiene and the specific challenges presented by demographic change and digitisation, as well as workflow issues and economic efficiency. Fourteen international case studies illustrate these design principles.

Abstract

This book examines the relationship between space, defined physically, legally and legislatively, and how these factors directly impact the spaces of abortion. It analyses how various political entities shape the physical landscapes of inclusion and exclusion to reproductive healthcare access, and questions what architecture's responsibilities are in respect to this spatial conflict.Employing writing, drawing and mapping methodologies, this interdisciplinary project explores restrictions and legislatures which directly influence abortion policy in the US, Mexico and Canada. It questions how th

Abstract

Das Krankenhaus unterlag als Bautyp in den letzten Jahren großen Veränderungen: Der Wandel im Gesundheitswesen, die evidenzbasierte Medizin sowie Fragen der Gesundheitsökonomie (wie die Bündelung bestimmter Verfahren in Fachkliniken) stellen neue Anforderungen an die Planung. Private Gesundheitseinrichtungen treiben den Paradigmenwechsel vom funktionalen Technikbauwerk zum design-affinen Gesundheitsbau mit Hotelcharakter voran. Dieses Buch stellt in einem breiten systematischen Teil die Voraussetzungen für Entwurf und Planung von Krankenhäusern dar. Der Beispielteil dokumentiert in sechs Kategorien - Allgemeinkrankenhäuser, Kinderkliniken, Universitätskliniken, Fachkrankenhäuser, Ambulanzen und Polikliniken sowie Reha- und Nachsorgeeinrichtungen - ca. 40 internationale Projekte. Hospitals as a building type have undergone a substantial evolution in the past years. Changes in healthcare, the impact of evidence-based medicine and aspects of healthcare economics (such as the clustering of diagnostic procedures in specialized clinics) pose new and different challenges for the designer. Private healthcare facilities herald the paradigm change from the large functional building complex to a design-conscious health institution with luxury hotel features. Health centers more devoted to prevention rather than cure have been another important trend. This publication explains the principles and requirements for the planning of hospitals and other health facilities. An international case study section documents 40 best-practice projects in six categories: general hospitals, children's hospitals, specialized clinics, outpatient clinics and health centers as well as rehabilitation clinics.

Abstract

Au cours des dix dernières années, l'agence parisienne Brunet Saunier Architecture a développé, sous le nom de "monospace", un concept hospitalier basé sur un processus de réduction à l'essentiel, c'est-à-dire de "simplexité". Se voulant plus adaptable que normatif, il repose davantage sur le déterminisme que sur la probabilité. Ce concept très prisé - l'ouvrage analyse 21 projets novateurs en France, en Belgique, au Danemark et en Suisse - suscitera un grand intérêt bien au-delà des frontières françaises.
