Helsingborgs Lasarett
FOJAB and BSK Arkitekter have been jointly responsible for the major transformation of Helsingborg Lasarett's main building. Between 2014 and 2024, a total renovation has been carried out at an estimated value of 4.5 billion.
The first phase of the assignment included the design of program, system and construction documents for the approximately 12,000 m² eastern wing of the hospital's characteristic cruciform building.
Furthermore, the north wing has been rebuilt with three general wards, a maternity/gynecology ward and a pediatric ward on five floors.
In April 2024, the psychiatric ward was completed.
The refurbishment enables the hospital to meet future demands for modern wards and treatment methods. The refurbishment also means that all technical systems have been replaced and all interiors have been replaced except for columns, stairs and elevators. An important starting point - in addition to functionality - has been to create generous views and plenty of daylight, giving staff and patients direct contact with the outdoor environment and the opportunity to follow the rhythm of the day and the changing seasons.
A simultaneous operation has placed high demands on good logistics and well-functioning flows throughout the process.
