PMT was responsible for providing design services for the Mental Health Service Building and Non-Care Building at Pedro Hispano Hospital, an intervention aimed at strengthening outpatient mental health services by creating a functional, humanized space integrated into the existing hospital complex.
The architectural proposal is developed in an available space in the hospital, efficiently occupying the free area and responding to the defined functional program. The project is based on the principle of standardizing mental health care spaces, seeking to move away from the traditional language of hospital architecture and closer to environments that are more familiar to people's daily lives.
The solution favors the entry of natural light, the correct implantation of the building, and the maximum use of the available area, creating a prominent architectural body to the north. The building's design promotes comfort, accessibility, and well-being, contributing to the improvement of the user experience and the dignification of mental health treatment spaces.
This intervention reflects PMT's approach to the development of architectural projects for healthcare facilities, combining technical rigor, architectural sensitivity, and a focus on people.
