After the 2010 earthquake, the Haiti hospital in Port-au-Prince needed a complete reconstruction to recover essential healthcare services and modern infrastructure.
The project is located near the Faculty of Medicine and the city centre development. Moreover, it includes the construction of two independent but connected buildings.
One building houses the main hospital. Meanwhile, the second volume accommodates services such as pharmacy, shop, laboratories and kitchen, ensuring functional support for medical activity.
However, this separation may complicate connectivity between areas. Therefore, a bridge is proposed to link both buildings and guarantee smooth and efficient circulation.
The main Haiti hospital building is divided into two parts. A triple-height central space ensures circulation and improves comfort for patients, staff and visitors.
Each functional area is grouped into modules. In addition, inner patios organize spaces, bringing natural light, ventilation and a more human scale to the hospital.
The façades and finishes are designed with open roofs. Consequently, they provide greater comfort, energy efficiency and sustainability in the hospital’s different spaces and services.
