The project was developed in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic, creating 11 negative pressure rooms that guarantee the best treatment conditions for patients and greater safety for health professionals. The interior spaces articulate luminosity, fluidity, and tranquility to create an elegant, but a still functional and efficient unit. Externally, the volume establishes symbiotic relationships with the surrounding buildings, harmoniously articulating Art and Science
