Pharmaceutical facility design: adding value with construction technology and ‘Chip Thinking®'

Regulators are clearly going to be either a key partner/enabler or barrier to smart developments.

This theme of bringing a sense of the outside into the internal hospital space is another picked up by multiple staff members.‘I think for the patients on the ward the nice thing is that all of our bedrooms have their own windows that look out to an internal courtyard,’ says Highton.

‘So they all have a natural element to them.They’re not looking out into an industrial unit or to another wall… The atrium is very large.It’s open, it’s airy, so that provides light.

It’s quite a light feeling building.’.Wood confirms that by turning the upper floor, outpatient windows inward toward the courtyard, Bryden Wood were able to create ‘much better acoustic and views’ for those rooms.

‘We made the building an experience that was unaffected by surroundings…major roads and other buildings that we had privacy issues with onsite.

We turned the section of the building, so it’s quite introspective…instead of looking out, or typically out, to the surrounding environment, which is compromised.’ Additionally, he comments that the removal of the ‘domesticity’ of these windows aids with providing the building’s external aesthetic that ‘higher, almost iconic value,’ it manages to achieve.. It’s all part of Circle’s larger focus on personal experience, which Highton also discusses with respect to the patient bedrooms.https://www.wired.com/story/twitter-photo-crop-algorithm-favors-white-faces-women.

Is your work in construction automation leading us to the end of humanity?.We don’t believe in the automation of everything.
