VITAL MOVEMENTS (THE SEQUEL)
 
 
Two more investigations into MOVEMENT
 
The first diagram is a Spiral Approach. In the top diagram I am proposing that once a patient is in the recovery stage of their surgery, that their physical room will move to the outside of the facility and slowly begin to spiral down the building until reaching the first floor of full recovery. There is a "central core building" that is stationary where all the appropriate functions are divided amonst floor:
1st Floor: Entrance/ Lobby
2nd Floor: Consultation
3rd Floor: Pre-Op
4th Floor:Surgery/Operation
5th Floor: Post-Op
 
The second diagram, is experimenting with the rooms sliding horizontal and vertical in a puzzle/pattern like design. Same idea applies, as a patient gets better their room will move horizontal (right or left), and per doctor's evaluation, their room will slide down to the next floor and the same process occurs every floor until reaching the first floor of recovery. What sets this idea apart from the others, is the rooms would have the capability to protude off the building to allow other rooms to move past them (in the instance a patient is healing faster than another).
