Let's architecture wellness into hospitals | Jerry Ong | TEDxSingapore

What if hospitals were designed and built to promote wellness and not just to fix and cure human beings? Architect Jerry Ong brought this vision into reality in his work
Little did architect Jerry Ong expect when he first undertook the design of Khoo Teck Puat hospital in Singapore that he would be pioneering brand new approaches, ideas and innovations in the architecture of wellness.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

Wonderful project! There's many more fine details to explore like what plants and trees are good for humans? what does music do to extend and enhance well being? what do different colours offer in the same vain? What an excellent confirmation that young people are going there to hang out and study? Young people are clearly connected to the vibrancy and vigour of youth and they bring it with them everywhere they go! Cheers

I don’t really agree with the waiting area design. Cause sometimes me as a patient really like the hospital’s normal waiting room ambience and atmosphere while waiting for a doctor. I think it’s better if you make it indoor then give a nature scenery that block by glasses with a little air vent on the top

[@kombuchachacha2418]

I actually like the smell of hospitals
