introduction
title
Heart in Heart Hospital (triple H)
short description
Hospital building is of heart in heart shape, symbolizing mother and child in pregnancy.
Eligibility
Unfold your idea into a story connected to a specific situation (max 5000 characters)
The one and only specific situation for a mother and child situation is pregnancy and its inherent love.
The idea is to construct the building as a double heart, symbolizing the most intimate relationship between mother and child in pregnancy. The bigger building contains gynecology while the smaller building contains maternity.
Depending on space available there a two proposals:

1: Laying Buildings (foil 1)
smaller heart inside bigger heart
The two hearts connect at the point of inflection. From building point of view this is the traffic hub.
Child heart or the whole heart may be covered by a glass roof, but the basic shape must be absolutely visible day and night

This layout becomes even more dramatic if built on a soft slope.

2: Standing Buildings (foil 2)
smaller heart being offset lateral and sagittal eventually slightly turned too
Set a relaxation area with tropical plants in the inner outside of the outer heart

*****
Give it a dramatic night illumation (similar to foil 3)
How can your idea be implemented? Who can be a partner or supplier in realising it?
