AUTOPSIES
UNIT
06
The Autopsy Unit is a standalone building, built
from scratch, constructed to supply shortages that
the hospital had at pathology medical and scientic
support, including high risk interventions.
This building allows a totally isolated service from
the outside conditions.
The brick walls on the outside combined with the
sobriety of the facades, ensures better integration into
the surrounding green area and limits the impact of the
new built volume within the hospital complex.

Scheme design of a new end-of the line unit, with
31.300m2, with the mission to provide specialized
research and treatments.
Located in Dely Brahim-Chraga in Algiers, the bid
is based on the implementation of systems that ensure
the compliance of the dened principles, namely the
principle of rigor, the principle of efciency and that of
wellness, while allowing a great exibility and future
adaptability.
The metric and modular system adopted has
made possible the proposal of an optimised and cost-
controlled construction that nevertheless reects
the leading edge technology nature that lies behind
an equipment of this nature with a coherent and
contemporary image where one recognises common
thread that integrates all the diversity of adopted
solutions.
We want that the National Institute of Cardiology
constitutes itself as A Place in the City.

Scheme design developed under the international
competition for the design of a new hemodialysis and
laboratory unit for the S. Joo General Hospital, Oporto,
Portugal.
The main concepts under the development of this
project were the integration of the expansion project in
the built environment, managing internal and external
circuits in order to provide adequate circulation for
staff, patients, caregivers, dirty/ clean material and
respond to the exibility criteria needed for a Hospital
building.
The quality of the built space and the users welfare,
prioritizing aspects like the acoustic, thermal, visual
and indoor environment comfort was also one of the
main goals.

Our project is dened by a group of distinct
buildings, related to different medical specialties,
connected by a single corridor. This conguration
allows different relationships between buildings and the
surrounding landscape, increasing solar orientation,
functional and ows seggregation and claries patient
waynding.

in Luanda.
With a capacity of 230 beds and an overall building
area of about 70.000 square meters, will be located in
