Healing Arts: St Mary’s Hospital

Synopsis
Images showing the design and ethos behind the building of St Mary’s District Central Hospital, which breaks the pattern of clinical, institutional building of the 1960s and 1970s to create a healing environment that sets the agenda for the 1990s, based on human scale, natural light and use of the arts from the design stage.
