The entry covered a variety of stages, including a city for 160,000 inhabitants and a smart home care apartment for the elderly.
Of 46 entries Medical Architecture qualified to the final 6 after which 2 winners and 2 honourable mentions were awarded.
An Extract from the Jury Report noted that, “The entry with the motto Hygiopolis is appreciated because of the basic idea behind the design and the attention for a healing environment. The designers don’t only assume that the inhabitants of the city have a healthy lifestyle but also take the course of life of the residents into consideration. Many aspects of the competition schedule are incorporated in the design.”
