Our ambition: the Hospital of tomorrow. Beyond the technicality and the functionality of our proposal, we endeavored to offer a new image to the Nord-Ouest Hospital, an image filled with humanity and softness, conveying well-being and attention, the image of the hospital of tomorrow. We have therefore designed an open, accessible project, which combines the site with a new mode, the reception.
