Nursing Home in Sault
The Sault hospital features an H-shaped architectural design that optimises the layout of rooms and services while promoting resident comfort and independence. The open-plan spaces and rooms open onto gardens and the surrounding landscape, providing natural light and soothing views. The compact floor plan reduces circulation, facilitates staff work, and minimises heat loss. The building takes into account the climate, sunlight, and prevailing winds, while creating pleasant living spaces.
