Emergency & Accident Department — Hayatabad Medical Complex

An emergency department planned around visibility, access and speed — a clear entrance, a vertical emergency marker and a covered ambulance approach.

The Emergency & Accident Department at Hayatabad Medical Complex, Peshawar is designed around the fundamental requirements of emergency healthcare — visibility, accessibility and rapid movement. A clearly identifiable entrance and prominent vertical emergency marker establish an immediate visual reference, while the covered vehicular approach supports efficient patient arrival and transfer. The façade combines brick, neutral cladding and contemporary glazing to give the facility a robust yet approachable institutional character. Strong horizontal and vertical elements organize the building's scale and distinguish key circulation zones, creating a healthcare environment where architectural clarity supports the urgency, efficiency and functionality of emergency care.
