Masterplan in Portugal

Our architects were asked to prepare a Masterplan in order to organize the new social facilities of the Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Lousada in Portugal.
In the new development we can find a health project that includes a unit of continuous care and a new palliative care unit. In the zone that refers to the dependency project we can find two centers of occupational activities and a residential home. In the emergency project it was thought a set of residences for victims of family violence. In the case of the intervention project a nursing home and a set of senior residences were planned. The strategy was based on the perfect resolution of functional problems, the creation of a cost-controlled solution and deep respect for the natural and rural environment.
The result is a general plan that includes efficiency, professionalism and a close relationship with the natural surroundings.
