Text description provided by the architects. The poverty of medical services in rural villages leads many to adopt a new kind of clinic. This response, in light of developments in health policy, brings together in one place practitioners in medical and paramedical fields.
The building is secured tenuously to a bank in contact with the parcel in a subdivision unsightly. It waiting to escape, the main entrance is reached by making a wooden footbridge, fragile yet. It crosses a bamboo vegetation to carry a hall cannibalized by a patio, uniting the two levels, filled with bamboo, too. The lobby is transparent on both sides of his depth, he links the two main volumes maintaining sufficient porosity.
The opacity of the interior arrangements, comply with medical secrets, and opposes the total opening consulting rooms on the landscape. The full opening of spaces on the outside, through Bands shooting windows call to vertigo, may be suicide. It is an alternative to medical failure.
This project is completely in the Manichean opposition between space that maintains confidentiality of the practitioner and the uncertain state of the patient.
Addressing a program of this type so cynical, is a response to the legitimacy of such a project.
The insertion results in a limitation in the extreme impact of the landscape, not to distort the original field.
The use of vernacular materials, plus the introduction of eco-construction and eco-technology, such as green roofs, reinforce environmental approach.
