UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL ANTWERP (UZA)

Overview projects 1975-2000 and 2001-present
Project description
Antwerp University Hospital (UZA) is a specialized hospital. The laboratories cover all clinical disciplines and occupy an area of 3,000 m², employing around 100 technicians and researchers. Design considerations included on the one hand optimal infrastructure efficiency for professional use and on the other the humanization of the interior for the patient/user. So, for example, medical-technical services were housed in a low, elongated technical unit, separated from the actual hospital by circulation towers.
