Love Infirmary Health Center

Love Infirmary

Love Infirmary is a renovated health center inside an elementary school in Taipei, Taiwan. The original space had insufficient circulation, a dark interior, and inadequate storage for medical equipment. The new interior follows a biophilic approach, with more natural light, natural textures and materials, and smooth curved surfaces. Circular forms define each function, including the nurse's office, beds, breastfeeding rooms, and counter. Most surfaces have an alcohol-resistant finish for easy cleaning. The layout gives students a clear path to treatment.

Love Infirmary Health Center by Daisuke Nagatomo and Minnie Jan was highlighted as an outstanding example of architectural design by the A' Design Awards. Love Infirmary Health Center earned the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2023. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is a highly prestigious, international, juried design prize that rewards excellent design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
