The New North Zealand Hospital is a tranquil escape that provides a sense of relaxation for both patients and workers. When it comes to hospitals where people are trying to recover from various ailments, what better atmosphere is there than tranquility?
The hospital is located in Denmark, and has a clover-like shape. With its surrounding forested area and low-rise build, the structure is very unassuming, and blends in well with the natural location. The architects have done a good job incorporating as much green space within the grounds of the hospital as possible, providing access to gardens and walking space around the outside. For a place to recover, the New North Zealand Hospital is one of the better options.
