Kita-Harima Medical Center

The outpatient mall, designed to clearly guide visitors along their primary route, features a two-story atrium that allows natural light to flood in through skylights covering the entire ceiling,a courtyard projecting into the atrium, and a rooftop garden at the end of the mall, allowing visitors to experience the natural outdoor environment from within. The use of natural interior materials and artwork creates a space that offers healing and tranquility.
In the inpatient wings, the site’s unique feature—a panoramic view of the surrounding landscape—is maximized; large windows in the day rooms, patient rooms, and staff conference rooms bring natural light and lush green scenery into the interior.
