CLUJ NAPOCA CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL
Just as people design buildings and then give a form to them, in the same way, these structures that we spend time in often begin to shape us and our lives after a while. Although this is one of the most neglected issues in treatment-centered structures such as “hospitals”, it is actually one of the issues that should be our first priority. Considering children are the main user of the building, it is now a known fact that these places where they will spend time during childhood will accompany them in their minds for the rest of their lives. On the other hand, according to Piaget, there is an undeniable connection between the environment and the cognitive development of children. When the child is first born, this cognitive process starts with instincts and intuitions, and these abilities develop further thanks to the repetitive patterns and experiences in the child's environment. At the same time, the environment in which the child lives contributes to a more integrated individual with his environment, while the opposite is possible within the context of the environment he is in. So here, it is up to us and the design to find a place in their minds for every time spent in this pediatric hospital. That is why the situation in a children's hospital is of greater importance; there is an undeniable connection between the possibilities that design offers our well-being.
