The cascading, ring-shaped podium seamlessly integrates gardens into the building’s interior and rooftops, while the 45-degree layout activates diverse boundary spaces around the site. The twin-pavilion inpatient wards, arranged in a double-chevron configuration, enhance operational efficiency. White walls and gray window eaves subtly echo Suzhou’s architectural traditions. Striking a balance between functionality and aesthetics, this high-efficiency, modular, and expandable modern garden hospital pays tribute to Suzhou’s renowned Jiangnan gardens while avoiding excessive ornamentation.
