Bridgepoint Active Healthcare Stantec Architecture KPMB Architects 丨 HDR Architecture Diamond Schmitt Architects Toronto

摘要

"No one likes going to the hospital," says architect Bruce Kuwabara of KPMB Architects. That was the central insight that Kuwabara and a team of collaborating architects-including Toronto-based KPMB, Stantec, Diamond Schmitt, and HDR-used in designing a new hospital for the city's Bridge-point Active Healthcare. This would be a new typology that would better serve patients' happiness and well-being. The 680,000-square-foot campus, commissioned by the University of Toronto-affiliated health network Bridgepoint and the province of Ontario's Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, breaks the mold by opening itself to the city and to nature.
