New North Zealand Hospital

Ramboll has been appointed engineer and project manager on a planned 1.4 million ft2 hospital in Hillerød in east Denmark, designed by Herzog & de Meuron.

The New North Zealand Hospital will serve over 310,000 people and will hold nearly 700 beds.

The bottom two storeys of the building consist of diagnosis and treatment facilities with the top two storeys comprising a ribbon of wards surrounding a roof garden.

Herzog & de Meuron, working with Danish practice Vilhelm Lauritzen Arkitekter, won the design competition for the project last month.
