Workshop 2021: Hospital La Model
Professors: Mario Corea, Joan Llongueras, Lidia Planas
Assistant: Ana Lucía Morales Tarazona
The project is located in the Eixample of Barcelona, on the site of the building that formerly housed the municipal prison known as “La Model,” which is now in disuse. The functional program is that of a 20,000 m2 medium-complexity hospital that includes critical services, emergencies, diagnostic imaging, surgical block, outpatient department, hospitalization and administration. In addition to the design of a highly functional and well-designed hospital, the other main objective of the project was its integration into the surrounding neighborhood.
