The project is located in the center of a rural community next to the church and the mayor’s office. It is the outcome of an initiative between the municipality and a local care provider, which tackles the issue of how to provide local care services for an aging society.
The multi-care program addresses different target groups with differentiated care needs including a daycare for elder people, a care collocation for 10 pers., six accessible apartments and a healthcare center. The core project is the High-garden. It serves as an outdoor communication platform for the care collocation and the village.
This project takes into acount specific topics that architects must consider in a rapidly changing world: pandemics, an aging society and the growing awareness of loneliness.
Using a modality based methodology allows us to design the architectural components towards an environnment that supports health and wellbeing. We use pandemic related modalities to design a resilient architecture.
