healING Terry Farrell and Partners are working on a number of projects in the healthcare sector. A common theme is sensitivity to the existing site, whilst devising innovative solutions to progress the tremendous opportunities to create vibrant new quarters. As far back as the 1980's, TFP carried out studies of aspects of hospital culture for the Bloomsbury hospitals, identifying problems associated with mono-culturality. TFP sought to change the perception of hospitals as large forbidding entities and replace them as 'gentle giants,' integrating within the urban fabric. This is achieved by creating mini-communities or villages. This model has subsequently been adapted in schemes for The London Clinic and at Founder's Court, St. Thomas's Hospital in Lambeth, where the focus is on delivering a new neighbourhood benefiting staff, patients, their families and the wider community.
