Three student teams take top prize for the 2023 Children's Hospice Home for the Terminally Ill competition
The second series of the Children's Hospice design competition awards three winning design proposals from student teams based in Japan, Mexico, and Denmark. The 2023 award winners responded to the competition brief asking participants to "create designs for a place that can give more support to children and their families facing a terminal illness." This year's jury selected design proposals that offered "respite, recuperation and receive support in whatever form they may need it while they are battling their illness." Buildner, the competition's organizer, added, "While this was an architecture ideas competition, the brief requested a few key functions for the conceptual hospice, including a common area with a gathering room, a games or playroom, a small library, a Chapel, a kitchen and dining room, as well as a private area which could function as a nurse’s room and therapy room for psychological support. There was no defined location chosen for this competition, and participants were requested to select a theoretical site from their home country."Explore each winning project below.1st PRIZE & BUILDNER STUDENT AWARD Sympiosis by Miku Yashiki Yuta Sugasawa of Waseda University (Japan)Read the full post on Bustler
