Fujita Academy − Continuing Education Training Center Building No. 1

Aichi 2007

This university facility was planned ahead of the 50th anniversary of the establishment of Fujita Academy. As well as having regular medical university lecture rooms, the building also has practical rooms designed for new medical education, such as practical clinical training and medical procedure training. In addition, the building contains a memorial hall, as well as the functions for the corporate headquarters. Small eaves and environmentally-friendly sashes with natural ventilation devices attached have been installed on the exterior to reduce the heat load. With a light touch to the balance and rhythm between the openings and the exterior walls, the aim of the design was for harmony with the existing building, as well as the image of being advanced and open.
