London, UK - Healthcare
The major redevelopment of Whipps Cross Hospital is a transformative opportunity for Barts Health NHS Trust to provide a flexible, modern, digital hospital for the future.
Our response is driven by adaptability to support the integration of new models of care that transform clinical outcomes for patients in an every changing social and healthcare environment.
With the Ryder led multidisciplinary team, Whipps Cross will bring together a wide range of services designed around the needs of the local population, including housing, leisure and culture, providing an unprecedented opportunity to regenerate a unique site and bring together a London community.
The hospital is designed using a standardised platform approach. This enables the delivery of better care, a better experience for patients and a better environment for staff to provide care in. The approach provides an efficient and functional framework with flexibility and adaptability to respond to changing healthcare needs in the future.

From planning to construction, to materials and the modular layout, our commitment to deliver on net zero carbon targets has informed the design from first principles to consider lifecycle maintenance, replacement, future recycling, and eventual disassembly of the building.
