位于科威特的阿里·穆罕默德·T.加尼姆门诊楼矗立如医疗保健行业的先锋。这栋新建筑以全新的模式将隐私和安全等棘手问题解决。而与建筑外表相连的庭院是这种样式独特性的推动因素。
The Ali Mohammed T. Al-Ghanim Clinic building stands as a pioneer in the healthcare sector, where challenging issues such as privacy and security are addressed using a new model, where courtyards attached to the façade are the driving element behind this unique typology.
这一项目占据了整个场地，从远处看，建筑是巩固着地基的一个整体元素，高墙围筑的堡垒防护着破坏行为，并使个人隐私得以最大化。庭院嵌在建筑物内，使得自然光线能够进入所有诊所间。这种设计颠覆了建筑外观形成光线、视野和通风效果的观念，庭院被从外围带入建筑内部，进一步创造了一个不受干扰的空间，庭院几何图式的金属网面又强化了这种不受干扰的状态，充足的光线穿透网面照射进来，在外部和内部庭院中间建造了一个金属网面遮蔽的入口。
The program occupies the entirety of the site, and from afar the building is viewed as a monolithic element solidifying its ground and creating a high walled fortress protecting from vandalism and maximizing privacy. The courtyards are carved into the building, allowing for natural light into all the clinics. The concept of the façade generating light, views and ventilation is reversed; and the courtyards are brought inwards from the perimeter creating further privacy enhanced by a metal mesh with a geometrical pattern where sufficient light can penetrate, constructing a veiled threshold in between the exterior and the internal courtyards.
因为这间诊所里的设计项目具有密集和多样化的特征，空间被切分成多个自给自足的部门，相互之间可独立运作。因此，诊所里便易的定位和导航是关键，每个部门都涂上了彩色编码样外观，作为标识系统，来辅助一般性的寻找路线的手段。
Due to the density and variety of the program presented in this clinic, the spaces are sectioned off into multiple self-sufficient departments, which can operate independently from one another. Therefore easy orientation and navigation through the clinic is key, where each of the departments is color coded with sufficient signage throughout, to facilitate a universal way-finding technique.
阿里·穆罕默德·T.加尼姆诊所被认为是一栋具有代表性的先进建筑，如果没有阿里·穆罕默德·T.加尼姆先生的慷慨捐赠，眼前所见的这栋建筑便不可能出现在人们眼前。
The Ali Mohammed T. Al-Ghanim Clinic is viewed as an iconic progressive building, in which this vision could not have been apprehended without the generous donation of Mr. Ali Mohammad Thuniyan Al-Ghanim.
