Assuta Hospital Ashdod

Location: Israel, Ashdod
Status: In progress
Size: 65,000 sq.m
Client: Assuta Medical Centers

Located in the heart of Ashdod, Assuta Public Hospital will be the city's first hospital, catering to the residents of the south of Israel and providing them with top-notch health care facilities that they require.

The hospital is made up of a system of adjacent rectangles which include the main building and the private clinics that are connected by a large foyer and a series of bridges. The design follows the stacking concept in which each segment serves a unique function for the hospital, while forming an interesting composition as a whole. The yellowish stone cladding brings to mind the sandy dunes of the area.

The hospital is confined by two main streets to the north and south, and is part of a larger health care complex planned to be built to Assuta’s south, thus completing this much needed addition to the area.
