REIMAGINING TEMPORARY EMERGENCY HOSPITAL

This thesis provides an in-depth exploration of the architectural aspects surrounding modular hospital rooms, which have been specifically designed to address the pressing need for additional healthcare facilities during emergencies. The study focuses on developing a solution that is both flexible and scalable, aiming to bolster existing hospital capacities and ensure the delivery of adequate care for patients. The core concept of the modular hospital room centers on repurposing parking lots, utilizing lightweight materials, and implementing ingenious folding mechanisms to facilitate easy transportation and installation. The overarching goal of this research is to contribute to the field of emergency healthcare architecture by offering a comprehensive understanding of the design, functionality, and advantages of modular hospital rooms.
