HEALTHCARE ARCHITECTURE . Ambulances Healthcare Building 061 | Joaquin Galan Vallejo

The main building, whose function is to serve as a basis for ambulances 061 and health personnel, has a large overhang, which has a dual function, firstly isolate ambulances civil hospital environment and on the other through that cantilevered cover the replacement and maintenance of facilities ambulances. This large overhang, surprised by its proportion becomes similar to that of the building constructed, which makes it very unique and sometimes leads to the inevitable approach of curious people. Moreover, in the design criteria, the building is governed by an almost extreme minimalism that seeks both its location and treatment of texture, and the choice of colours both coatings, as in carpentry that mimic him with the facade of the civil hospital (historic building, built in 1862) and likewise try to reduce  the impact of a modern building faced another old Hospital. The dialogue between the two buildings, it is produced from a position of silence and respect, so that many people access to old hospital in that area, doesn´t notice the existence of the new building.
