The main concept of CARETHY+ is to create an adaptable tool to locate and design a healthcare center, which will incorporate the scale, layout, functional and structural requirements along with constructability. CARETHY+ offers a solution for both small and large scale of facilities, while focussing on the large scale - and designing of a major healthcare facility. The process is gamified, since we imagine the project to allow a high degree of user participation in order to empower the displaced refugees and make the healthcare center highly customized to their needs. +Ground Floor I3 I4
