AU GUST 2022
s the world's most populous country, with more than 1.4 billion people, most of China's
urban hospitals are correspondingly large, with multiple building layouts and 1,0001,500
beds apiece.
The teams designing such mega-projects are challenged to deliver facilities that feel both
approachable and easy to navigate. Two recent new-build hospitals in eastern China-
one in Huzhou and the other in Hangzhou-illustrate solutions that intermix natural forms,
amenities, and an abundance of green space to create healthcare settings that feel less
intimidating and more welcoming for users and the communities where they reside.
For example, Huzhou Central Hospital in Huzhou, China, chose a lakeside site for its replacement hospital and
then utilized a network of courtyards to provide access to daylight, natural ventilation, and greenery for both the
inpatient and outpatient facilities. At Zhejiang University
School of Medicine First Affiliated Hospital Yuhang
& Medical Research Center, in Hangzhou, Zhejiang,
China, the campus includes a tea house, garden, and
lecture pavilion to offer respite for patients' families as
well as gathering spots for neighborhood residents.
On the following pages, case study articles dive into
some of the design solutions that make a statement on
these two projects and represent a fresh approach to
large healthcare facilities.
Huzhou Central
Hospital
Huzhou, China
THE FORMER HUZHOU Central Hospital was a
high-rise facility hemmed in by similar buildings
in the city's traditional downtown. The
setup created a cramped experience for staff,
patients, and their families, says hospital director
Ma Jianming. When it came time to replace
the 1940s facility, hospital officials purposely
chose a site about three miles away with a distinctly
different vibe: a 42-acre campus on the
southern banks of Tai Lake.
While the buildings on the site take up
2.6 million square feet, the plot also has roughly
