archipelago is research partner in the EU Horizon project Caring Nature
archipelago is proud to announce that they are one of the research partners in het EU Horizon project Caring Nature which focuses on reducing the carbon footprint of the European Healthcare sector. As an expert in the design of healthcare architecture and hospitals, archipelago was invited to develop together with 4D architects the COMPASS tool, which will be a decision support system for sustainable healthcare architecture and will help clients and designers to take informed decisions regarding a building’s environmental footprint, adaptability and circularity. The tool will be developed in close collaboration with the Universitätsklinikum Heidelberg, which will supply the primary research case and will be further tested on the Catalan Hospital Asil Degranollers and the healthcare infrastructure of the Finnish Päijät-Hämeen hyvinvointialue.
