"Buildner has announced the results of its fourth annual Hospice - Home for the Terminally Ill international architecture ideas competition. This global call for ideas continues to explore how architecture can support end-of-life care with empathy, dignity, and contextual sensitivity. The competition invited architects and designers to move beyond clinical requirements and envision spaces that offer emotional warmth, social connection, and a profound sense of place."
"Participants were asked to design a small hospice facility accommodating up to fifteen residents and five staff members, incorporating key communal and therapeutic spaces such as a kitchen, chapel, nurse's station, and a library-equipped gathering room. Projects were to be sited in the participant's home country, encouraging locally grounded and culturally responsive solutions. An international jury reviewed the submissions for their design clarity, emotional resonance, and architectural depth."
