Beijing Capital Medical University Mi Yun
Teaching Hospital was founded in 1955, and is the only secondary level
comprehensive hospital in Mi Yun district that is experienced in clinical
practice, medical education and research, rehabilitation, disease prevention
and healthcare, etc.
The hospital covers an area of 57 thousand
square meters, containing 37 thousand square meters of indoor space. This
project uses a wide application of new energy-saving material and ensures “green”
construction during the planning and building of the hospital reconstruction
and thus was awarded National Quality Engineering Award of 2014-2015.
There are 5 individual buildings on the
hospital grounds, including 3 four to five-story outpatient buildings, a
pediatric building, an emergency building, 2 twelve-story internal medicine
buildings and a surgical building. As a public building, the style of the
hospital is conservative and in design more emphasis is put on the functions of
the building.
A combination of stone and terracotta
curtain walls is used in the design of the buildings’ exterior wall. Light-grey
stone material is used for the outer frame to sketch the overall lines of the
hospital buildings and add to them a sense of grandeur. And creamy-white
terracotta plates are used for the main facade of the buildings to warm the
coldness of stone frames and make the building more elegant and serene.
In the past few years, natural,
environment-friendly, durable and easy-to-maintain terracotta
ventilated rainscreen wall cladding products have become a trend in
hospital-related exterior wall design and application. And terracotta facade
products are extremely versatile in color, surface texture and shape. Traditional
natural surface ones and colorful glazed surface ones, smooth ones and rough
ones, ones that are common groove/ corrugated surface and
ones custom-made special facade elements— are all
available, and can be freely chosen and combined to increase the diversity of
traditional hospital building designs to realize the building style architects
have in mind.
