World trade node Southeast Asia is a huge transport and shipping hub. Therefore, many shipping containers can be provided, transformed and reused for mobile health care facilities all over the region, either mainland or islands, converting the idea of a medical box into a piece of architecture.

Inside the containers Surgery Room
1 Selecting and preparing the containers
One of the side surfaces of the container rotates in order to double the original space. A sliding glass facade and a sliding roof create a temperature controlled private space used for small surgery procedures.
2 Transportating to plot
3 Setting foundations and flooring
4 Emplacing the containers
5 Opening the containers
Nursing / Info point The container generates two different areas by sliding two of its facades: a more private one which is used as a nursery room and a

It is also very important to create a building that provokes the participation and involvement of the community, by using local materials and human resources; a space where the community feels welcomed and pleased to be in.
