Datong Chinese Medicine Hospital

According to the layout of the traditional courtyard in Shanxi, a series of courts are inserted into the plan to form the interweaving space system of interior and exterior. The single pitch roof, another famous feature of local house, is also used to visualize the spine of the hospital. The spine not only connects most of the wards as the circulation of the hospital, but also implies the “meridian” theory of Chinese Medicine.
