Toyama Red Cross Hospital
Breaking with tradition, a hospital with an atrium has been realized,
No basement floors were planned to reduce cost and construction time. A view from the outpatient waiting room over the levee to the Jintsu River was secured.
The membrane roof over the atrium and excellent views are a product of the pursuit for a functional design in harmony with the climate.
