H+A Global secures design contract for Jeddah wellness project

Multidisciplinary design firm H+A Global has secured the advisory, architecture, interior and landscape design services contract for Anfas Medical Care Health Group’s (AMCHG) Wellness Village project in Jeddah.

The Wellness Village is a facility incorporating a long-term care center, women and children’s facilities, wellness clinics, a boutique wellness hotel and spa, sports fitness facilities, health-related F&B and retail outlets.

“In our Wellness Village project, we will use live visual feeds that allow immediate two-way communication and the transmission of vital signs in real time, allowing staff to respond prior to a medical event. This fundamental shift in medical transparency is a revolutionary development in healthcare,” Mamdouh Albaqumi, CEO at AMCHG, said.

The project is set to break ground in Q2 2020 and complete in 2022, the firm said in a statement.

The masterplan is made up of three plots over a site area of 35,370 square meters, connected as a single campus within a wellness orientated, landscaped garden.

“The design of the built environment will enable people of all ages to easily access their community and surrounding areas, leading to increased engagement, activity levels, better health and improved quality of life,” Stas Louca, Managing Director at H+A Global, said.
