El Abiodh Sidi Cheikh Medical Center
El-Abiodh Sidi-Cheikh, Algeria
A medical complex comprising: first-aid unit, dentistry wing, x-ray department, laboratories, a pediatrics center, offices, and a conference hall. Constraints of climate, lack of skilled labour, and the dearth of available building materials, have led to a design solution using internal courtyards, narrow shaded streets, few openings, and thick external walls built out of load-bearing stone.
