Following a crisis, users’ needs align with sympathy, aid and consult. The goal of this project is to address the need for welcoming and creative pop-up healthcare services in areas of disaster relief to accomodate the health and well-being of those displaced.
I believe that in times like these, inspirational and creative design can alter the way a person views healthcare in stressful times, not just by architecture, but from the care provided and the atmosphere experienced.
“how could a layered interior environment entice, comfort, and await users in a pop-up clinic space?”
What? Who? When? Where? Why?
Pop-up adaptable healthcare clinic for those in crisis
Any and all survivors of the crisis, but most likely to be used by those in displacement situations and healthcare staff
Deployment to be soon after crisis occurs
Adaptable and flexible structure can accomodate to any site conditions and crisis occurance
Assembly is quick, temporary, and adaptable to respond to needs
Existing site located in grassy area outside of a school for displaced person’s from floods
The need for accessible and enlivening healthcare is essential to the physical and mental wellbeing and health to users
