Arkitema Architects—our profile Arkitema Architects has a long history, dating back to 1970 when the practice was founded. In the 40 years since, the office has been responsible for a broad agenda of residential construction as well as countless schools, town halls, recreational facilities, office buildings, hospitals, restoration projects, landscape and urban design, and more. Common to all our projects is a desire to create a social and energetically sustainable architecture designed in close dialogue with the client and the user, an architecture that is experienced as beautiful, unique and befitting its purpose.

Though a Danish firm, with locations in Aarhus and Copenhagen, we have become an increasingly important player in the Nordic market, with an office in Stockholm and a project office in Norway. We create our projects using our broad array of expertise and experience, which allows us to work with not only the architectural element but also with sustainable design, user involvement and a wholehearted commitment to 3-D technology.

Arkitema is a limited partnership owned by MAA architects Bendt A lmvig, Jørgen Bach, Wilhelm Berner-Nielsen, Thomas Carstens, Per Fischer, Kim Risager, Poul Schülein and administrative director Peter Hartmann Berg. A ssociated partners are MAA architects Niels Christoffersen, Glenn Elmbæk and Dorthe Keis. Retired partners with special ties to the company are MAA architects Michael Harrebek, Erling Stadager and Helge Tindal.

Arkitema employs about 265 employees, which includes architects, landscape architects, building consultants, construction managers, construction engineers, construction economists, designers, technical assistants, graphic artists, humanists, communication officers and administrative staff, all working to create the best in architecture.

ABOUT ARKITEMA HEALTH Arkitema Health’s contribution to the healthcare sector spans from specific hospital-related projects to buildings—from the laboratory to the pharmaceutical company. All involve complex, high-tech buildings. Therefore Arkitema Health has engaged many professionals for the job—a total of 65 people, all highly competent and expert in health-promoting architecture.

Arkitema Health understands the importance of the cross-disciplinary approach; we keep that in focus when we plan, design and build. We work with patients, equipment suppliers, hospital planners, engineers and client organizations. Therefore, the competence profile of Arkitema Health has been created both broad and solid in the fields that ensure architectural quality and innovation.

Arkitema HEALTH

Stockholm

Arkitema Health represents one of the largest and most important fields for Arkitema—an Arkitema that right now is experiencing a signficant development in health-promoting architecture with its participation in a series of leading competitions in hospital construction in Denmark, Norway and Sweden, and its May 2011 merger with Swedish hospital architects DOT Architects, all of which reflects Arkitema Health’s expertise in health-promoting architecture.

In the following text, the partner and business manager for Arkitema Health, Wilhelm Berner-Nielsen, talks about Arkitema Health, about Arkitema’s work with healing architecture, about the issues, concepts and ambitions arising as Arkitema Health expands its works in this fascinating specialty.

COMPLEX CHALLENGES Arkitema Health’s ambition is always to create a healing architecture that contributes positively to users' everyday lives.

Wilhelm Berner-Nielsen explains that the major challenge when building hospitals is to ensure the aesthetic while providing a complex and well-functioning machine. Fortunately, Wilhelm Berner-Nielsen elaborates, the developer often wants both a beautiful as well as a functional hospital—a good starting point that is often replaced by economic concerns and cut-backs during the design and construction process. Here the architect must fight an uphill battle to ensure that logistics don’t displace architecture, to realize a balance between the two conditions. Aesthetics and functionality are two sides of the same coin, but hospitals are best designed from the inside out, and it is, therefore, rare that an iconic figure ends up as the final solution. These complex challenges are best solved by employing both aesthetic and functional components.

A GROWING SPECIALTY Wilhelm Berner-Nielsen explains that, though Arkitema ­Health’s history is long, its work over the last 20 years has profoundly strengthened their portfolio of large hospital project design— primarily in Denmark and Norway. In Denmark, it started with a new treatment building at Regional Hospital West Jutland and the new psychiatric hospital in Amager as well as a number of additions at and renovations of Danish hospitals. At the start of

this millennium, our project approach changed radically when Arkitema won four major competitions for hospital design in Norway: Bærum Hospital, Follo Hospital (won with Henning Larsen Architects), Norwegian Radium Hospital in Oslo (also won with Henning Larsen A rchitects and built 2006-2009), and the 90,000 m2 New Østfold Hospital (currently being designed out of our project office in Sarpsborg, won together with A A RT A rchitects and Norwegian ELN A rchitects in 2002). This breakthrough was accompanied by the award of first prize in the competition for the 320,000 m2 Shenzhen People's Hospital in China, for which the first stage of 100,000 m2 was inaugurated in November 2011. In Sweden, Arkitema DOT is the consultant for New Karolinska Solna, and in 2012, the firm won two new health sector projects in Finspång and in Uppsala. Arkitema Health’s steady growth over these years has led to a staff of 65, in Denmark, Norway and Sweden, now employed to work solely on tasks within Arkitema Health. sTATE-OF-THE-ART KNOWLEDGE AND THE USER Over the last five years, Arkitema has intentionally worked with the concepts of healing architecture and evidence-based design in their healthcare sector design—an approach resulting from input from our two industrial PhD students, Jeanet Lemche and Lene Lottrup, who have grounded their PhD projects in work being carried out in, respectively, Arkitema Health and Arkitema Planning & Landscape. Both students are applying their work to hospital architecture, examining

how to ensure that the concepts of healing architecture and evidence-based design become inextricable, active elements of the architect’s work—to result in proficient hospital projects. The experiences of these PhD students have become part of our discussions with all users.

Additionally, A rkitema Health keeps itself up to date with state-of-the-art hospital design by participating in and presenting at conferences around the world.

In these connections, a very important part of Arkitema Health’s work lies in user involvement. Designing a hospital requires the creation of an effective and fruitful collaborative process with the users, a process-oriented approach involving regular meetings with all interested parties—from patients, nurses and consultants to cleaning staff and receptionists. Wilhelm Berner-Nielsen explains how, for example, the design of patients’ rooms is very important for the healing process. Relatedly, studies show just how injuries from falls in hospital rooms and bathrooms as well as hospital-related infections significantly prolong a patient’s stay in hospital.

Therefore, we concern ourselves with the interior design of patients’ rooms, making access to bathrooms/toilets easy and secure, for example.

While planning New Østfold Hospital, Arkitema Health experienced how the use of the latest digital tools can help meet users’ needs. Wilhelm Berne Nielsen says that we continue to experience great success with the latest technology, BIM, a 3-D model technology architects use to guide the staff around their future hospital—from the small toilet in the patient’s room to the large main entrance area to the chief physician’s office. The 42 user groups the architects have been in dialogue with regarding New Østfold Hospital have expressed great satisfaction with their participation in the project. The use of the BIM model during meetings with users also means that all user comments on the spaces as seen in the 3-D model can be recorded in the moment of the meetings. In this way, the users can see that their contributions are taken into account and that the meeting minutes are written directly into the documents.

FROM LOCAL HOSPITALS TO CENTRAL HOSPITALS Centralization is taking place on many fronts in society—in our cities, within our educational institutions, and not least within our hospital structure. In Denmark, the trend over the last 10 years has been to drop the local hospital designation in favor of a more international one. At the same time, there is a movement in healthcare away from many small units spread across the country toward super units, the new super hospitals, which accommodate top professionals, research and practice, efficiency and intensity.

about Arkitema'S industrial PhD projects Lene Lottrup (left) and Jeanet Lemche have completed their industrial PhD projects in Arkitema. Lene Lottrup’s project entitled “Workplace Greenery: The use, preferences, and health benefits of green outdoor environments at work places” has been referenced in several newspapers and radio spots, and reproduced in professional journals. Both Lene and Jeanet have based their projects on “the user”, who Arkitema involves as much as possible in their architecture and design. Both projects focus on the users—their observations and experiences with both the outdoor environment and relationship between a structure and its surrounding environment, and hospital spaces.

about healing architecture The concept of “healing architecture”, from the U.S., recognizes that architecture has an impact on the healing process. It is about how architecture affects staff, patients and relatives— through material choice, spatial sequence (flow), the use of natural/artificial lighting, junctions with landscape and relationships between the outside and the inside. Arkitema’s approach to healing architecture is a systematic one. It's something we've always done; now, though, we apply it even more consciously.

Super hospitals are replacing the smaller, local hospitals, bringing together highly specialized treatment options, insuring that top medical staff have strong ties to university research. The new super hospitals also require very high investments for their establishment, investments that enable the best and latest equipment for the best and most modern treatment. Modern hospitals are, therefore, few in number, and placed in proximity to university communities since they require well-trained and very professional personnel to ope­ rate advanced equipment. The same trend applies in Norway and Sweden. Norway is already in the process of building super hospitals, and Sweden is just starting. We have set up an office in Sarpsborg, in southern Norway, where, together with A ART Architects and ELN Architects, we have been planning the New Østfold Hospital. We are in the process of establishing a subsidiary in Oslo. Meanwhile, Wilhelm Berner-­Nielsen

stresses, the fusion with the Swedish architectural firm Architects DOT provides Arkitema additional expertise and knowledge of the Swedish market for healthcare architecture.

Over the last 10 years, Arkitema has operated and expanded this Scandinavian strategy of joining and creating strong Scandinavian teams, building optimal collections of competence. As Wilhelm Berner-Nielsen recounts, already in 2007, Arkitema founded the consortium CuraVita, a collaboration between Norwegian and Danish hospital architects, planners and engineers, which today consists of A rkitema, the Norwegian architectural firm NSW Architects, the engineering firm Grontmij and the Norwegian hospital planners Hospitalitet.

THE ArchITECT AS PROJECT MANAGER With the advent of super hospitals, the building of hospitals will become an increasingly complex task requiring a large effort on the part of all parties involved. Wilhelm BernerNielsen can see a large benefit in choosing the architect as project manager, someone who can maintain a perspective of the whole while collecting and directing all the crossdisciplinary elements. Architects can do this, says Wilhelm Berner-Nielsen, because of skills they possess that neither the hospital planner nor engineer possess; the architect is process-oriented, thinking broadly and analytically, seeing and involving all the multidisciplinary aspects that are important specifically to hospital architecture. Architects are good at entering into dialogue with users, good at visualizing and thus conveying architectural ideas and getting users to think “outside the box”. At the same time, architects are good at coordinating and creating the whole, and achieving perspective and cooperation among architects, hospital planners and engineers. We can create the necessary and very important relationship that is fundamental for healing architecture.

THE KEY TO A RELIABLE HOSPITAL The key to a successful and profitable super hospital, according to Wilhelm Berne Nielsen, is logistics. He believes that working with hospital architecture is a complex task, requiring constant vigilance to keep the final operation in mind.

When logistics are in order, workflow is facilitated and a hospital can economize on costs. A s it is now, construction costs for a new hospital constitute 2-3 times the annual operating expense. Therefore, it pays to invest in a well thought-out architectural design of hospitals so that the resulting hospital operates optimally.

SUSTAINABLE HOSPITALS Another very important aspect is sustainability: both the traditional idea of sustainability, understood as solutions

10 ARKITEMA Health

that reduce the consumption of electricity, heat and water and include durable and robust materials, and social sustainability, understood as architectural solutions that encourage and support human encounters. Energy sustainability must be an intricate part of the design and not appended as a technical afterthought. Through a rational planning of solar orientation, natural ventilation and material use, we can now achieve significant energy savings. This sustainable focus in architecture naturally leads to structures that are more comfortable to work in. In addition, it is highly important that hospitals interact with their surrounding exterior and have a comfortable and natural interior climate, favorable daylight conditions and room proportions that encourage cooperation and social harmony. The sustainable hospital is an open hospital far from past treatment facilities that are better likened to industrial buildings. The new hospitals have often a patient hotel attached to it where relatives can stay for shorter or longer periods, allowing them to be close to their loved ones during hospitalization.

Wilhelm Berner-Nielsen explains how the architect of modern hospital architecture is much more aware today than before of the hospital's role and its placement in the urban and rural landscape. This awareness means that passersby, who have no direct interaction with the hospital, can still benefit from the hospital’s green environment, its laid-out gardens and paths. By better linking the hospital to the urban and rural landscape, and by incorporating the hospital into life that goes on around it—among the healthy, we create a much better experience for patients, families and staff—an open and sustainable hospital. hospital architecture of the future When Wilhelm Berner-Nielsen looks into the future, he sees a digital landscape emerging. The future is based on highly specialized professionals working in centralized hospitals as well as community hospitals and health centres . Using telemedicine, large patient groups, such as cardiac and diabetes patients, can be treated from a distance, while at home, for example. The patient can check blood pressure and blood sugar and send the information via computer to a professional staff at super hospitals or local health centres. The future is, therefore, digitization—also regarding dialogue with medical staff. All this, therefore, requires that architects build super hospitals that both centralize expertise and open up the opportunity for more and more patient dialogue in cyberspace.

Arkitema Health has developed its services based on evidence-based design principles (EBD).

Arkitema uses EDB as part of the architectural design method, continually incorporating the latest evidence of architecture's impact on patients, families and staff into the design and building process.

We design and draw on the latest knowledge, knowing that acoustic conditions, the use of natural and artificial light, choice of materials and colors, contact with the landscape, a rooms’ relative placement (proximity and flow) and individual room design and layout, among other things, are all essential architectural factors that affect a patient's experience with and response to therapy, rehabilitation and contact with staff.

Arkitema consciously employs “healing architecture” and keeps itself abreast of all advances of knowledge made in this area.

We start from the premise that hospital architecture and design concern not only spaces and structures in which patients are treated and cared for, but also facilities that support patients' treatment and rehabilitation and soothe and promote their healing.

The relative placement of rooms as well as the layout of individual rooms helps to support a positive physical interaction for both patients and relatives. The right solutions will alleviate staff experience with stress and give them more control over their own work situation.

EDB is also about involving users in the design process, coupling their experiences with an existing hospital with the latest knowledge in the field, aware that it is the key to creating the optimal new hospital. We always use our user inclusion tool “Arkitema Sensemaking”, which ensures that users' contributions are collected, analyzed and used most effectively.

A main objective when selecting a clinical structure is to minimize internal transport distances and create the optimal flow in the hospital for clarity, efficiency and professionalism. It is welldocumented that short transport routes reduce errors and falls, and staff experience a better everyday with optimized workflows and less downtime.

1

ANALYsing PATIENT AND staff FLOWS

Part of the solution lies in choosing a compact building structure, which in itself shortens internal transport routes.

Another key part of the solution is the relative placement of individual departments.

The foundation of the programme is supported by an analysis of patient and staff flows that helps to identify optimal workflows and proximity principles for staff, and create a basis for good communication with patients.

Karolinska University Hospital Conversion of the Emergency Department

Address: Karolinska University Hospital, Solna, Sweden / Year: 1998-2008 / Scope: 2,100 m² / Client: Locum AB / Architect: Arkitema DOT

In conjunction with the conversion of the emergency department, a series of studies were made to ensure that the conversion would lead to a better overview for staff, more security and improved workflow. This resulted in a model of the entire space using movable walls that allowed us to try out room sizes and layout.

The final renovation resulted in a new arrivals area, where a nurse meets with a patient to decide on further treatment.

The two circular reception counters provide a good overview, and standardized examining rooms are located close to the two counters. The emergency department is also equipped with its own infection-control room.

Address: Bispensgade, Hjørring / Scope: approx. 3,500 m² + 630 m² renovation / Year: 2011 / Client: Region Nordjylland / Architect: Arkitema and Bjerg Arkitektur A/S / Landscape Architect: Arkitema / Ornamentation: West & Werners / Engineer: Korsbæk & Partnere KS and Harde Larsen A/S

The area of this new emergency department is defined by Building 40 to the east, Building 18 to the north, and the trafficked road Bispensgade to the west. The layout of the new building is made with respect to the severely limited potential for views and little room for green outdoor and indoor common areas. We worked consciously to create atria as architectural, recreational and lighting elements. We established a structural environment oriented inwards, thus creating an experience-rich domain with flowing relationships that transform essential corridors into lively paths in a

varied interior, giving daylight the highest priority, treated to emphasize the various functions, making movement and the connection to the bright inner courtyards and each section an experience in itself.

Externally, the building consists of two horizontally divided volumes—a volume containing the emergency unit and a volume containing the wards. The two volumes are fashioned in two different materials: the facade of the emergency unit in bright natural stone; the wards created in an airy glass building.

The placement of Psychiatric Centre Amager—midway between city and countryside—is used to create both lively and comfortable outdoor spaces, allowing patients to live with easy access to the outdoors. The smaller gardens nearer to the building are intimate and contained yet naturally extend to the surrounding larger urban park.

From the common spaces of the atria, one moves from the main corridor through local ones to courtyards designed

with different sensory stimulating experiences. The dialogue between interior and exterior spaces is present everywhere and makes orientation easy. The interior has a light and airy atmosphere; daylight streams into the building through skylights, atria and large windows, providing plenty of light and air to the patients. Conscious consideration of both patient and staff security has been taken throughout.

DNV-Gødstrup Address: Gødstrup, Herning / Year: 2011-2016 (1st stage) / Scope: 135,000 m² / Client: Region Midtjylland / Architect: Arkitema, AART, and NSW Arkitekter & Planleggere (NO) / Landscape: Arkitema / Engineer: Grontmij, Moe & Brødsgaard and Arup / Hospital Planners: Hospitalitet (NO)

In September 2011, Central Denmark Region declared Cura­ Vita, and thus Arkitema, winner of the competition for the new super hospital in Gødstrup, north of Herning. With a construction cost of four billion Danish crowns, DNV-Gødstrup becomes one of Denmark’s largest new constructions in healthcare and thus sets the standard for future Danish hospital construction.

Research shows that close contact with nature helps facilitate patient recovery and staff well-being. Therefore, Cura­ Vita has integrated its design with the West Jutland heath, the inspiration for the proposal’s uniqueness and sense-filled design, which uses materials that divert the mind from the traditional clinical hospital to one characterized by a safe and homey atmosphere.

Contact with the expansive Jutland horizon has resulted in a clear architectural concept. A s a natural extension of the

54 Ongoing projects

landscape’s horizontal lines, the winning proposal is rooted in an extended base, which includes outpatient clinics and sections for diagnostic imaging, surgery and offices, topped by lighter horizontal slices containing the wards, the combination of which draws attention up toward the blue sky over Herning.

To ensure efficient workflow, the winning entry creates close contact between all departments and specialties. This minimizes the transport time for the patient to get to, for example, diagnostic imaging and outpatient treatment; but more importantly, this allows for the specialist to come to the patient, rather than vice versa. By concentrating transport routes, the winning entry creates a hospital that makes the patient the central player, and proximity to the specialised areas helps ensure rapid and accurate diagnosis.

The groundbreaking ceremony for New Østfold Hospital took place in September 2011; in December 2012, 300 artisans started working on site, the hospital growing two metres in height each day. The hospital will merge several hospitals into one super hospital, meeting needs for the southeastern part of Norway as part of a strategic plan by the Norwegian government to streamline and improve the Norwegian hospital system. The project, with its 90,000 m², will accommodate four existing hospitals as well as psychiatric care.

58 Ongoing projects

The hospital has been tagged “bright future” to emphasize the importance of context—not just for the architectural expression, but also for its healing effect on patients and the effect on hospital staff. The hospital is robust and compact in its layout, yet contains optimal logistics and flexibility.

The goal of the architectural design is a confidence-building framework in which patients, visitors and staff feel highly prioritized.

The expansion and renovation of Psychiastric Centre Esbjerg is based on a continuation of the existing classical orthogonal layout of the buildings. The new buildings are placed so that the overall architectural structure reflects a clear functional division and a hierarchical arrangement among the functions.

The main building, and the extensions built later, will house on the ground floor the structure’s main corridor, which links the new and existing wards on each side of the main building and contains all common and activity spaces.

Bound by the main corridor, the entire system works as a compact structure.

Regional hospital Viborg design consultancy

Address: Heibergs Allé 4, Viborg / Year: 2010-2018 / Scope: 64,900 m² / Client: Region Midtjylland / Architect: Arkitema / Landscape: Arkitema / Engineer: Moe & Brødsgaard

A rkitema is the building consultant for Viborg Hospital, possibly the designer for parts of the project.

Regional Hospital Viborg will be one of the region's five hospitals and will house the common emergency department.

An expansion of the hospital is planned to meet this acute function and the steadily increasing demands of a modern, rational and efficient regional hospital. The hospital will be accessible to the patient around the clock—centrally located in the region and local to Viborg, with easy major road and public transport access.

The main aspects of this project are a new construction of an emergency function and a new main entrance and auditorium. A reshuffling of existing buildings will create efficient logistics applicable to the overall hospital. Bed wards and outpatient facilities will be prioritised and improved. Furthermore, Arkitema is planning a new building for the West Denmark’s Centre for Spinal Cord Injury (VCR) as well as the construction of a new multi-storey parking structure.

68 Ongoing projects

As part of Arkitema’s application to the government for approval of the Regional Hospital, a realization study was made.

This entailed a general structural plan for the hospital, establishing functional linkages, new infrastructure and the relation of Viborg's local plan to future hospital expansion.

The functional linkages discussed in the realization study were later included as part of the competitive basis for the architectural competition that followed.

On the basis of our user inclusion tool for establishing hospital operating principles, all the hospital's main functions were reviewed, developed and described. For each of the five main areas—surgery, radiology, outpatient surgery, emergency services, and entrance and logistics, a user group was set up, and together with Arkitema’s staff, these groups developed the operating principles for all aspects of the project.

From the hill to the east, the hospital emerges as an open structure with east-west-oriented fingers of varying lengths and angles modeled to the landscape’s curves. The landscape’s natural dynamics shape the hospital's north-south artery—the main corridor, and connects and provides direct access to all hospital functions, and links the project to psychiatry in the south and the extensions in the north. The play of the terrain’s curves with the structure brings movement to the main corridor and gives the total hospital a natural variation and character. With reference to the landscape and chalk subsoil, a heavy, rustic base, housing the hospital's

outpatient clinics and treatment facilities, is created in light concrete. The base anchors the hospital to the site; its main structure ensures the included functions a flexibility and elasticity given the mobility of intefaces that can be adjusted to change room size. Parallel structures housing the wards have been laid on top of each base, allowing a unique view of the landscape from each room. In contrast to the base's tactile nature and horizontal expression, the wards’ light, refined volumes fabricated in tombak copper offer a vertical and crisp expression.

“The jury finds the plan of the main structure clear and convincingly simple, outlining great qualities in the urban and landscape spaces.” from the jury's report

76 Competitions

The wards in the upper volumes are spread out over four floors, giving the appearance of a smaller structure, but also allowing a highly visible and distinctive impression on arrival from the east. The overall hospital geometry is simple and rectangular with natural variations brought to the structure by the interplay with the terrain. The structures meet the landscape as lobed fingers that radiate into the terrain, creating spaces in-between that bring the landscape up to the main corridor throughout. At the ends of each finger, the building height is gradually reduced, from the wards to

the outpatient clinics, so that each east-west finger meets the landscape with a friendly compositional line of one-, then two-storey gables. The simple building architectural concept—the horizontal base stretched out like fingers in the terrain overlaid by spatial strokes of vertical layers of wards—provides the hospital and future additions an ultimate sturdiness. This also ensures that patients—both as outpatient and inpatient—are provided the best landscape views and direct contact with nature.

Our competitive proposal was inspired by the well-known Copenhagen quarter structure that is used to implement a scale transition between the existing Blegdamsvej quarter, the Fælledparken green, Rigshospitalet’s current single building composition and the new buildings that will sprout in Vidensbyen. Though respecting the traditional, the new building is fashioned in a contemporary idiom that clearly differs from that of Rigshospitalet’s existing buildings. The facade is designed to provide a transition between Blegdamsvej’s residential area and the new Vidensbyen’s more modern facades—a hospital with a contemporary and innovative

expression, a hospital that heralds in a new era for a peopleoriented, robust and yet very modern design.

The green context is a necessary component. Patients should be able to feel the grass between their toes, doctors should be able to hear the birds sing and visitors should be able to enjoy the sunshine together with their close ones. A simple concept that heals. While our proposal respects the existing hospital, it also yanks hospital architecture a notch into the future. An important step that is possible only because our proposal throughout the process has worked with an integrated design.

In the context of this proposal, we developed a new construction principle that raises the level of Danish hospital construction from the traditional by combining a unique building structure with greater flexibility. This new construction system transforms the facades into bearing loops, so that each loop can rest on top of another. This proposed structural system with bearing facades ensures great flexibility, robustness and resiliency in the new construction. Compared to

80  Competitions

traditional structures with interior columns and bearing walls that cannot be moved, the new building will be characterized by a new, unfamiliar flexibility and robustness with respect to future renovations. Between the bearing facades, the floor is constructed using a steel/concrete composite, providing maximum freedom with its column-free floors. Our proposal results in a modern yet maximally robust hospital without interior columns and with minimal material requirements.

“... A compelling holistic idea adapted to the complex situation at Rigshospitalet, putting a clear and quality stamp on both the construction and architectural idiom.” from the jury's report

As leader of CuraVita, Arkitema received the 2nd prize in the competition for the new university hospital in Odense.

CuraVita’s proposal was entitled “The Human Hospital City”.

A s future hospitals become larger and larger, it is very important to design with the human experience in mind.

While the hospital must function effectively, recent experiences point precisely toward combining efficiency with the individual.

The hospital city encompasses a large area south of Killerup Rende by the University of Southern Denmark, having a light rail connection to Odense, direct access to the highway, and a direct connection to the University of Southern Denmark. The hospital’s presence will provide the university an opportunity to create an elite health sciences education.

This connection to both the university and the rest of Odense will result in the human traffic that will transform New OUH into a city. CuraVita has suggested a distinctive tower, the Knowledge Tower, adjacent to the large square by the main entrance. An attraction for all of Odense, the Knowledge Tower presents a golden opportunity to invite recreational city life to the area.

The hospital city is also closely linked to the rich nature of the area. The landscape project creates a green hospital city where wetlands, hills and meadows together with small private gardens off of each department create ample opportunity for recreational outdoor experiences for patients, relatives and staff.

Bispebjerg Hospital Address: Bispebjerg Bakke, Copenhagen NV / Year: 2012 (competition) / Scope: for the somatic hospital—new construction, approx. 94,000 m² and renovation, approx. 64,000 m²; for psychiatry—new construction, 27,000 m² and renovation, 32,000 m² / Client: Region Hovedstaden / Team: Arkitema, NSW Arkitekter & Planleggere (NO), Kollision, AART, Moe & Brødsgaard, CIA (Center for Idræt og Arkitektur) v. René Kurell, Handiplan Plus and Ulrika Stigsdotter / Awards: none

Martin Nyrop designed the original Bispebjerg Hospital for a hillside outside Copenhagen, a hospital that would insulate patients from the surrounding world, properly away from city noise and smoke. Bispebjerg was at the time an ultra-modern hospital inspired by the thoughts of healing architecture and a vision of the garden city as an autonomous enclave.

Over time, the hospital became enclosed by the growing city, but retained some its insulating nature through hedges, fences that screened it from the city. During these years, the hospital was expanded, incorporating a new, rationale of hospital as machine and special functions that departed from Nyrop’s visions of healing architecture and of green areas as key value for health and healing.

With the project “Bispebjerg—an open health community”, it is our intention to preserve the healing of the green hills and the architectural qualities, and to optimize the rationale of hospital as machine, combining them both with a greater openness to the community outside.

The main concept is the ring—an interconnected band that protects Bispebjerg Hospital's green heart, acting as a central corridor to all functions, separating the historic Bispebjerg from the new hospital, which meets the city in a lobed and plaiting structure along the property’s perimeter.

In connection with the new main entrance, we establish Bispebjerg Universe, uniting both social and therapeutic functions.

The proposal for the Mental Health Centre Sct. Hans is based on the delightful qualities of its location as well as the effect the design can have on the consciousness of the public, patients, staff and relatives. Through a newly built centre organised around a new central corridor, the proposal establishes a logical and coherent structure that includes all aspects addressed in the new forensic psychiatric law, resulting in a structure that allows easy access to all hospital areas while creating a graduated transparency that naturally divides the public, semi-public and private areas.

This new mental health centre optimizes security through an effective, but visually invisible perimeter while providing the best spaces for treatment with a series of parks and gardens that offer both patients, relatives and staff the best opportunities for pursuing and achieving differentiated treatment.

Nature plays a crucial role. A conscious effort is made to draw nature into the treatment process and also to offer views and scenery that help divert thoughts from confinement and restriction to an opening of the mind to experiences and connections.

“The proposal shows insight into, understanding of and respect for the needs of patients, with its spaciousness and views, for personnel needs and desire for a gratifying work environment, as well as for efficient operation.” from the jury's report

A base unit—a loop—is created as a recurrent functional element with an inner courtyard or atrium, which ensures optimum daylight conditions for all spaces. Basic units are coupled together to form a flexible functional structure with short transport routes and clear vertical connections.

A tapering of roof levels is used to create south-oriented, roof gardens for psychiatric residential use.

Arkitema Architects—our profile Arkitema Architects has a long history, dating back to 1970 when the practice was founded. In the 40 years since, the office has been responsible for a broad agenda of residential construction as well as countless schools, town halls, recreational facilities, office buildings, hospitals, restoration projects, landscape and urban design, and more. Common to all our projects is a desire to create a social and energetically sustainable architecture designed in close dialogue with the client and the user, an architecture that is experienced as beautiful, unique and befitting its purpose.

Though a Danish firm, with locations in Aarhus and Copenhagen, we have become an increasingly important player in the Nordic market, with an office in Stockholm and a project office in Norway. We create our projects using our broad array of expertise and experience, which allows us to work with not only the architectural element but also with sustainable design, user involvement and a wholehearted commitment to 3-D technology.

Arkitema is a limited partnership owned by MAA architects Bendt A lmvig, Jørgen Bach, Wilhelm Berner-Nielsen, Thomas Carstens, Per Fischer, Kim Risager, Poul Schülein and administrative director Peter Hartmann Berg. A ssociated partners are MAA architects Niels Christoffersen, Glenn Elmbæk and Dorthe Keis. Retired partners with special ties to the company are MAA architects Michael Harrebek, Erling Stadager and Helge Tindal.

Arkitema employs about 265 employees, which includes architects, landscape architects, building consultants, construction managers, construction engineers, construction economists, designers, technical assistants, graphic artists, humanists, communication officers and administrative staff, all working to create the best in architecture.
