It is clear that a proper space is created with the possibility of design. Generally, shelters are existed in parks, but the other spaces which need them are hospitals and healthcare centers.
This project is conducted with monitoring of urban furniture department in Tehran beautification organization by Ekas design studio. The purpose of this project is arrangement of welfare spaces for people who accompany patients in healthcare centers for children. The lack of specific places for accommodation and temporary rest is the most important welfare problem in this complex for patients’ families, friends and people who accompany patients in hospitals. Patients and their fellows are people who come from different parts of Iran, and they have to spend a lot of time in outdoor spaces of the hospitals. Important criteria in designing these shelters include ease of montage and manufacturing, aesthetic, simple and minimal form and comfort in using the relaxing space.
