Moorfields Eye Hospital by Penoyre and Prasad, United Kingdom
The Moorfields Eye Hospital in London, United Kingdom was designed by architects Penoyre and Prasad LLP. The Richard Desmond Children’s Eye Centre makes a bridge between the outstanding clinical expertise of Moorfields Eye Hospital and the research prowess of the adjacent Institute of Ophthalmology to provide a world class children’s eye treatment facility. The arrangement of outpatients clinics, a day surgery unit, research facilities and short stay patient/parent hostel all within a very tight site has made the vertical connections between floors all important. On each floor light wells zig-zag up the building against the backdrop of a huge wall mural. Throughout, the design combines medical functionality with a rich, welcoming and easily navigable patient environment. The arresting exterior has a glass façade with a flowing pattern of aluminium solar control louvre blades, inspired by the idea of a wheeling flock of birds.
