The approach to the project maintains the spatial structure of the existing building, through the extension of the two main corridors, public and service, which allows connecting the new accesses to the existing system, providing greater flexibility in the internal organization of the operational areas and continuing to focus the design on the comfort of customers and employees.

The gardens and natural light, the two elements that characterize Hospital da Luz, were heavily reinforced. Much more glass surfaces on the lower floors and much more gardens, on the roofs and in the central patio, to be enjoyed from the inside.
