This M-arch thesis project focus on how can architecture helps the cancer community and how can we eliminate negative impressions of a hospital; How to make a hospital that doesn't look like a hospital and provide an environmentally healing spatial landscape. This new model of a cancer healing hospital and research center proposes to integrate food, nature, natural light, and healing into an environment designed not only for patient services, but also includes work spaces and accommodations for medical staff and families.
