Many famous architects including Louis Kahn, Sir Norman Foster, Cesar Pelli, Rafael Vinoly and Frank Gehry, have designed innovative healthcare facilities with varied results.  This presentation looks at these projects and delivers a thoughtful retrospective on what has worked well (and less well), the types of relationships between the internationally known designers and associate architects, and offers a glimpse into what the healthcare clients were hoping to achieve with these high-profile commissions.  The webinar will include a discussion of the ‘lasting legacy’ of these projects in both design and functionality.
