"Circle Bath Hospital’s aspires to radically transform the way health buildings are designed and healthcare delivered; drawing on expertise from the hospitality and airport sectors, and testing and challenging the norms and regulations governing hospital design, has produced a highly intelligent building. The abundance and quality of light, and its interplay with materials, textures and colours creates an environment that is simultaneously confident, luxurious, uplifting, soothing and calm. All this produces a clear message that you are in safe hands. The clarity of plan and the simplicity of the section produces intuitive access and movement, making the building easy to navigate and obviating much of the need for signage or maps." -- RIBA
