Andolu Health Center is located in Gebze in the outskirts of the busy city of Istanbul. It prioritizes the wellbeing of visitors, staff as well as patients, across all aspects of the design and purpose of the facility.
This can be seen through the landscaping which surrounds the U-shaped building so that people in all parts of the medical center have views of the marvelous gardens from every window. This is especially important across the healthcare industry as the color green and the ability to interact and engage with nature improves the recovery time of patients. It also provides a relaxing place for staff to unwind in a sometimes busy and stressful environment, as well as for visitors and patients who need a breath of fresh air and a moment of peace and quiet themselves.
The unique design of the hardscape features such as the winding paths creates a grand, welcoming entrance for those arriving, while the pond creates a sense of tranquility, with benches around for people to enjoy the landscape fully.
