Design process of the plans and the building’s form.




 From the first approach for the plans till almost the final



























The main idea at the end was to create a building with 2 different geometries and functions. The first one on the eastern side would be the educational Centre before pregnancy and the support space during the pregnancy. The main geometry here was given by the central wall which gives the impression of a cocooning space ideal for teenagers facing this problem to feel safe. The central court would be the place with the light tubes and it would be in memory of the old, preexisting houses as it will be on top of their traces. The western side of the building would be the Clinical department which again has an open space in the middle and its rectangular geometry represents the sequence and the organization of such a space. It will run as a proper machine. The birth pools and the medical department will be on the ground floor as the drop I showed graphically in the primary collages.

Facade collage- conceptual approach


Cooper - how it changes through the years

Cooper is going to be applied on some key surfaces in the building and some on the external facade.
