Architecture meets healing – modernization for the well-being of patients

As part of the careful adaptation of the first-class rooms at the Barmherzige Schwestern Ried hospital, Delta Pods Architects has created an appealing space that combines comfort and functionality.

Key design element: moving away from the classic hospital room with bed rails to a place that conveys a natural, calming atmosphere and a more homely feel.

Clear lines, targeted zoning, the integration of natural materials, and a well-thought-out lighting concept create an environment that supports patients not only medically but also emotionally.

A place where architecture is at the service of well-being.
