MASTER THESIS
JESSICA PLEIJEL
ABSTRACT Staff with medical background
A patient hotel is a building concept where independent patients can be further away from the hospital with less staff. However, patient hotels are usually one of the massive building blocks in a large hospital area, where patients are isolated from society. The purpose should not only be to bring patients out of illness, but also to improve and maintain a healthy lifestyle for everyone. The aim of this master thesis is to explore how a design proposal of a patient hotel in Gothenburg can promote physical, mental and social health for patients, relatives, staff and society.

PATIENT HOTEL
How can a patient hotel be designed to promote physical, mental and social health where patients feel like part of the community? This building proposal is built upon research focused on the relation between healthcare facilities and human health outcomes. Interviews, evidence-based design, building references and study visits helped to form a program for a sufficient patient hotel. An iterative process of building models and sketching was made to explore atmospheres, materials and mass. The result is a design proposal of a patient hotel integrated in the city. It is a home away from home where patients can continue to live their daily life as a part of the community. The restorative environment support healthy behaviors, encourage social interaction and support, as well as offer spaces that allow privacy and integrity.

Patient hotels frees up beds at the hospitals, makes the care system more efficient, reduces costs significantly, while patients at the same time can enjoy a more stimulating environment that is not limited by hospital standards and regulations. The importance of this winning concept needs to be addressed to a greater extent. There is also a need to further investigate the complex relationship between building design and health outcomes and how healthcare facilities in general can promote health for

A NEW MEETING POINT AT SKANSTORGET
REMAIN AND STRENGTHEN QUALITIES
It is wise to densify a city like Gothenburg, but there must be a balance between the houses themselves and the rooms inbetween the buildings to experience the city as attractive. Skanstorget has great potential for being a new attractive meeting point between Haga, Linné and Skansparken where patients can be considered as part of the community.
By maintaining the site partly as an open space, Skansen Kronan remains visible from the road. By building on the northern part of the site, the square has daylight throughout the day and also creates good daylight conditions in the building. By collecting all traffic in the northern part of the site, a car-free square is created that everyone has access to, with a connection to the preschool and the patient hotel.

SUSTAINABLE CHOICES
The building is mainly a wooden construction. CLT wood is produced from renewable material in a process with minimal environmental impact. It is a natural part of the cycle and binds carbon dioxide throughout its lifetime. Thanks to its moisturebuffering properties, CLT also contributes to a good indoor climate. It also turns out that you sleep better in rooms built in wood, a material that breathes as it relates to season and relative humidity.

PROGRAM The project in this master studio is to create a vision for a new healthcare center in ร rebro. It is also about obtaining general knowledge about and ability to design large scale, complex and sustainable buildings integrated into the surrounding environment and urban setting. The focus is to apply the concepts of four different themes; - healing architecture - evidence based design - healthcare + architecture - history - health promotion - future proofing - flexibility and generic space

PROCESS SITE This is the site in Örebro that is given from the client.
SIGHTLINES Two important sightlines trought the area. One allows you to see conntinuing streets and the other one makes the park visible.
FLOW Two main entrances are visible and easy to reach from the main traffic and pedestrian flows.
DAYLIGHT AND PRIVACY Two large courtyards brings in lots of daylight into the building and create a more private sphere for patients.
NOISE AND BUILDING HEIGHTS To protect from the noise, the building is higher by the boulevard and it is also is following the height of the other buildings.
GREENARY Green courtyards and terraces with different themes are oriented towards the south and the park.
HEALING ARCHITECTURE EVIDENCE BASED DESIGN
TERRACES AND COURTYARDS
Roger Ulrich, founder of a world leading research on evidence based design, explains that spending time outdoors makes patients feel better and the staff work more motivated. A higher amount of natural light and views of nature reduces depression, experienced pain and patients have a more rapidly recovery. Daylight and nature has therefore been the focus in this project.
The terraces and courtyards have different themes depending on what department it is connected to. The healthcare is not anymore a place where you go only when you are ill. Therefore, there is also a public restaurant terrace can become part of everyday life of people living nearby.

solutions that challenge the conventions. The building includes housing,
apartment and office blocks, constructed in wood in Johanneberg. The project location is part of the parking lot between Chalmers and Gibraltargatan. The studio aims at developing knowledge and skills in the work with
office, student facilities and commercial functions.

SUSTAINABLE CONCEPT The concept is about sharing functions and using spaces for different purposes around the clock. Today we consume more than ever before and this is why sharing spaces, equipment and services is an important part of the environmental and economical sustainability in this project. Normally the apartments are empty during the day, offices are empty after 5 and the number of students in school varies over the year. By merging some functions into one space where more people have access, many functions can therefore be more efficiently used around the clock.
SHARING SPACES SHARED SPACES
The idea is also to promote social sustainability by encourage diversity and creating places that supports people to interact.
Housing
Building in wood has many environmental benefits that both applies to manufacturing and recycling. Wood is a durable material, it binds carbon dioxide and does not contribute to increased emissions.
Shared spaces
Office
In small workshops and storages located on all floor levels, residents and services of the offices can share tools and cleaning equipment. By planning the conference room in connection to the breakroom, this could quickly transform into a big living room with cinema screen where residents can have movie nights.

You can use the big roof terrace or rent the shared kitchen for a dinner party when the own apartment is too small. Offices also need resting places, and by placing these private and in connection to a fully equipped bathroom it can be temporary used overnight.

NATURAL VENTILATION
WOODEN CONSTRUCTION
Overheating is often the main difficulty for the indoor climate in offices, even at these latitudes in Sweden. The stack effect makes the warm air to rise, reducing the pressure in the base of the building. Cold air is naturally drawn in through the mechanically controlled office windows and the exhaust air ventilates out through the top windows in the atrium.

There is a large mix of apartments, but they all share the same key qualities. One of those qualities is that you enter in the same way, by walking through the double glass doors that leads out to the more private sphere on the exterior corridor. The exterior corridor can be used for so much more than just a corridor, such as extra storage, a nice dining area or to occasionally have a small conversation with your neighbour who is currently planting tomatoes to place in front of the entrance.

The task was to design energy-efficient rowhouses in Lillhagsparken, Gothenburg. The main purpose was partly to practice the ability to design beautiful and practical housing and partly to explore the relationship between building design, indoor climate and energy management.
In this project we worked in groups to design a multi-purpose concert hall, collaborating with two students from the master “Sound and vibration”. The challenge was to emphasize the general building acoustics design and make it adaptable to theater performances as well as different types of music and broadway productions.
This master studio is about designing a dementia village in Önnered, Gothenburg on a site which is currently planned for assisted living. Following a specific program, there are 120 apartments divided into 16 units.
In parallel with this project we also had another course, VBF018 - Building physics 7.5 credits. Building physics application was presented as principles for the design of the climate screen and building physical dimension. Energy calculations were compiled in a report that stated that the rowhouses met the passive house requirements.
The location was a densely populated urban setting and the building was flanked on two sides. It was to include an auditorium with a balcony, stage house, and orchestra pit. The facility will also include a multipurpose rehearsal room which must have easy access to the stage.
The concept of dementia villages was developed in de Hogeweyk in Netherlands, but there are yet no examples in Sweden. The idea is that people with dementia should be able to live as normal as possible in an environment with qualities of a small village.
