PROJECT: Phase 3 Front Entrance

CLIENT: Hull University Teaching Hospitals

VALUE: £3M

LOCATION: Hull

CONTRACT: NEC

The ambition for the new main entrance focused on improving the arrival experience and creating a stronger frontage to the hospital. The existing entrance was set-back and uninviting causing confusion for patients and visitors. By extending the facade line closer to the site boundary and adding a striking, splayed footprint with glazed facade we’ve created a welcoming frontage, which guides visitors to the building entrances.

Two new entrances have been created to address the two main directions of approach, further easing movement around the site and reducing stress as visitors now have a clear entry point. Works included internal walls, internal doors, staircase finishes, floor finishes, wall finishes, ceiling finishes, fittings, mechanical and electrical services.
