The Circle Reading Hospital by Brydenwood Architects is a beautiful healthcare center aiming to replicate a hotel experience. Rather than a typical hospital experience, the Circle Reading Hospital is meant to be a welcoming, warm environment that offers breathtaking views and an atmosphere conducive to healing.
All rooms at the Circle Reading Hospital have windows that face the inner courtyard, offering a glimpse of the center's green roof, which has proven important in the recovery process. The hospital also boasts a stunning double height atrium and a restaurant that add to the hotel-like atmosphere.
The Circle Reading Hospital is an innovative design by Brydenwood that incorporates recent studies regarding the link between a patient's environment and their success in the recovery process.
