Week 8 Work: Concept 3

This perspective is a view from the New Farm Direction. Concept 3 is very similar to concept 2, however, it is opposite in its layout of offices and ramp/hallways. This concept uses the same access layout, giving access to and from all directions.
This image shows the opposing layout to concept 2 with the offices now on the outside and the ramp/hallway system on the inside. This layout allows for a more public space in the middle where the ramps are and a more personal space on the outside for all of the offices and rooms.

This perspective shows the layout with the offices on the outside on the second level of the emergency department. This layout will allow for ease of access throughout the building, gives views to the city and allows for a unique 'floating' environment for recovering patients rather than the usual boring room.

Week 8 Work: Concept 2

This image shows a perspective view of concept 2 from the New Farm side. Like concept 1 this concept also allows for access from all directions. The admin, entry and emergency department are also located directly under the bridge in this concept to reduce time between arrival and admittance or triage.
This view of concept 2 shows a hallway ramp running around the outside of rooms, offices and treatment rooms. A number of lifts will be used to reduce the need to use the ramps and maximise efficiency between spaces, especially in the case of an emergency.

This view shows the opposite end of concept 2. This image shows the second level of the ramp system and the top level which would most likely be nurse quarters. Lifts and new escalator systems will be used to allow for completely modern and efficient emegeny hospital.

Week 8 Work: Concept 1

This image shows an overhead perspective of concept 1. This concept is positioned mostly under the bridge and gives access for all directions of travel. The main admin, entry and emergency department of the hospital is located directly under the bridge and will use a circular ramp system and an array of lifts to maxcimise efficiency and reduce time travelling between rooms.

This picture shows a view along the bridge. It gives an indication to the heights differences between the rooms. The circular walkway is not shown in this concept diagram.

This image shows an underside view of the concept. As seen through this image the rooms within the hospital move in a 'circular' fashion and extend from below the bridge, up and around. This concept allows for ease of access, good view of the city and will be easily visible to all surrounding environments.
