Participants are tasked with conceiving a facility that not only provides medical support but also caters to the psychological and emotional well-being of its visitors. The design should comfortably host up to 15 visitors and 5 staff members, featuring essential spaces such as a common area with a library, a gathering room, a chapel, a kitchen, a dining room, a nurse’s room, and a therapy room for psychological support.

In this fourth edition, we continue to offer participants the freedom to select a theoretical site within their own country, encouraging them to integrate cultural, environmental, and social contexts into their designs. This competition goes beyond architectural aesthetics; it's an opportunity for participants to demonstrate how thoughtful design can offer solace and support to those in the most challenging phases of their lives.
