CONCEPT
Orthopedics has to do with bones and muscles. After a patient has surgery they need to get out of bed and move. When moving, you are bending your joints which is a curved motion. This curved or scallop shape embodies this movement and helped form the shape of the hospital.
INTERMEDIATE REVIEW • Create a connection to Founder’s Park • Create open public Green Spaces • Create more private green spaces for Patients and Visitors • Include separate areas for all patient, staff and service use
