In a hospital, every minute saved on staff travel time improves quality of life at work, and consequently, the quality of care. The main challenge was to shift from a fragmented, maze-like circulation to a continuous and fluid flow around the central garden and patios.

Every patient will, sooner or later, feel anxious. Going to the hospital should not exacerbate this feeling, but rather alleviate it. In such circumstances, interior architecture must be welcoming, warm, and, above all, reassuring.

Concept

This project is set within the dense and urban context of Levallois-Perret, at the heart of an architectural fabric in constant evolution. The Franco-British Hospital is undergoing an ambitious restructuring and extension, all while maintaining its medical operations.

The intervention aims to thoroughly reorganize logistical flows, freeing up substantial space to improve interconnection between medical services. This transformation also allows for the creation of a double-height entrance hall structured around a central garden — the true heart of the project. This green space offers a breath of fresh air within the hospital environment, while intuitively guiding the various flows of patients, visitors, and staff.

On the upper floor, circulation adopts a Double-8 configuration, easing internal movement around the garden and patios. This layout optimizes the hospital’s internal operations and anticipates future service expansions.

Finally, the building’s fifth façade is developed as a series of landscaped terraces at various levels. These outdoor spaces offer moments of rest and contemplation for patients, hospital staff, and visitors, with open views over iconic Parisian landmarks such as Montmartre hill, the Eiffel Tower, and the La Défense district.
