SHIP-SHAPED HOSPITAL

01 Oct 2014


A ship-shaped medical facility aims to eliminate the fear associated with traditional hospital buildings and create a sense of serenity.



Envisioned as a medical facility and international clinic for patients to experience peace rather than fear, architect Vasily Klyukin has conceived the ‘White Sails Hospital & Spa’ for Tunisia Economic City (TEC), a planned beach-front urban project and mega-metropolis.





A mammoth, ship-shaped structure spans across the site, with four towering ‘sails’ accommodating labs, preventive care centres and a wellness spa.

“We would like to build the world’s first hospital, which no one will be afraid to visit,” says Klyukin. “I will fly into space next year. My health condition has to be checked every six months - that is why I know this feeling very well. Every time I’m approaching the white building of the clinic, I don’t feel any joy, but I would like to show a hospital where there is no room for fear.”

A sweeping bow extends towards the sky, providing shade for visitors sitting beneath the vast structural canopy. Terraces and balconies overlook a lush landscape and surrounding pools, hosting a range of comfortable amenities for both patients and their guests.

Vibrantly colored lights illuminate the ‘White Sails Hospital & Spa’ by night in a spectrum of tones, adding to its sense of serenity.
