A 2023 Healthcare Environment Award winner, the Renal Unit at Taranaki Base Hospital, Te Huhi Rāupo, brings a holistic shift to the care and wellbeing of dialysis patients and their whānau (family). It's a small, standalone building, packing a big climate-conscious punch and shifting the expectations of what is possible in healthcare.
Standing as a global leader in energy efficient and low carbon design, it’s the fourth building internationally to be registered for Zero Carbon certification and the first ever healthcare building set to achieve Zero Energy certification in the world - and proudly one of the first of any building typology in the Southern Hemisphere.
Attend this webinar to learn about Te Huhi Rāupo's holistic approach to healthcare and how we can evolve the process of co-design on projects to achieve meaningful outcomes.
