Tuberculosis spread through windowless hospital corridors, and the power grid often failed

.

Under such conditions, mass used limited resources to develop a simple scheme to improve air circulation, that is, facing the outdoor corridors and large windows to the trim green space

.

Since its establishment 12 years ago, mass (model of architecture serving society) has created remarkable life support spaces in developing countries

.

In addition to hospitals and clinics, three of the 17 principals of mass will design primary and secondary schools, universities and affordable housing, and participate in urban master planning

The hospital was built from the surrounding rich and underutilized volcanic rocks

“In the debate about beauty, there is always a view that beauty exists only for those who can afford it, and that beauty can be bought,” Murphy said

Indeed, for ten years, we have been studying the relationship between buildings and human health, and how the construction of a building can lead to illness or keep people healthy

Murphy and his partners, David saladik and Alan ricks, founded mass when they were students at Harvard School of design

“We can’t actually afford large-scale, high-speed, high maintenance mechanical systems,” Murphy said

They applied what they had learned from developing countries to hospitals, restaurants, schools and sanatoriums in the United States to try their best to curb the spread of the virus

.

“They’re not just talking about how to build a building.” Murphy’s mass clients say, “they think – how do I solve this problem, how much space do I need to solve it?” Although mass’s construction projects are usually for communities devastated by poverty, natural disasters, wars and epidemics, the design of these buildings will also be beautiful

“The concepts of natural ventilation and architecture go back to the 20th century.” Ricks, 37, founder and chief design officer of mass, said, “take a look at the design of old-fashioned hospitals, with high ceilings, large windows, thin panels, and natural cross ventilation.” Mass basically operates outside the market, and its sources of funding include remuneration and philanthropy
