Aceleradora La Paz Hospital / Murado & Elvira Architects

The Aceleradora of La Paz Hospital in Madrid is the first in a series of pavilions promoted by the Unoentrecienmil Foundation. It is part of a research project aimed at accelerating the healing of childhood cancer through physical exercise. The pavilion is located on the hospital's roof, accessed through a window in the room tower. It is an outdoor space but at the same time represents a new interior that incorporates techniques and imaginaries conducive to recovery. For a moment, hospitalized patients can break free from the rigid spatial and temporal protocols of the main building.
