Aveksha Hospital

The project

Planning around light and movement

Designed as a 125-bed multispecialty hospital, Aveksha organises access and services around the site. Wards and medical procedure areas respond differently to orientation and daylight. Projecting horizontal planes express the arrangement outside, while windows and open volumes bring changes of scale to the spaces within.

The selected photographs bring together the hospital’s external form and specific interior settings. The building’s approach and layered facade introduce its organisation, while the open volume and ward give a more direct sense of scale and daylight within. Reading these views together helps connect the institutional programme with the architectural decisions expressed in the building, without reducing the project to its exterior appearance.

Inside the project

Spaces & their stories.

Move through the project one space at a time. Explore the photographs and the decisions behind each setting.

Space story / 01

A hospital organised around its site

The 125-bed multispecialty hospital arranges access and services in response to its site.

The project’s scale is established by its 125-bed multispecialty programme, but the building is also shaped by the organisation of access and services. The exterior photograph introduces that arrangement. Wards and procedure spaces respond differently to orientation and daylight within the overall hospital.

Space story / 02

Building mass and approach

The building’s approach forms part of the arrangement of access and services around the hospital site.

The approach gives a closer view of how the hospital occupies its site. Access, services and building form must be read together to understand the project, rather than treating the mass as an independent object. Projecting horizontal planes make parts of that organisation legible in the exterior.

Space story / 03

The arrangement expressed outside

Projecting horizontal planes give the exterior its layered character and express the organisation of the building.

The facade’s horizontal layers express the building’s arrangement and give it a recognisable rhythm. Read with the ward and interior photographs, the exterior becomes part of a wider story about orientation, daylight and differences of scale across the hospital’s spaces.

Space story / 04

An open interior volume

Open volumes and windows bring changes of scale into the hospital interior, connecting the building’s organisation with its internal spaces.

The open volume offers a contrasting scale within the hospital interior. Alongside the windows and ward spaces, it demonstrates how the building is experienced through more than its exterior mass. The project’s organisation includes these changes of scale as well as the distribution of its clinical programme.

Space story / 05

Daylight in the ward

Wards and medical procedure areas respond differently to orientation and daylight, while windows bring changes of scale to the interiors.

The ward provides a more specific view of the project’s relationship with daylight. Wards and procedure areas are described as responding differently to orientation, making this photograph part of an environmental reading of the hospital. The windows also connect the individual room with the building’s larger arrangement.
