Hospital da Luz - Clínica da Covilhã

Located on one of the city’s main arteries, continuing from the Sonae Sierra shopping center, the clinic occupies a set of five ground-floor units of a residential building, with direct access to the exterior. In this intervention, the presence of the Hospital da Luz brand identity is reinforced by a second skin of tensioned fabric that wraps the entire glazed façade, creating a unified reading and a chromatic transition aligned with the brand’s graphic identity. Inside, the layout is organized around a central reception area, extending to the imaging and outpatient services, with public circulation independent from the service areas. The environment designed for this clinic incorporates local references, such as the Burel panel made by local artisans at the entrance and photographs of native plant elements, providing identity and a strong sense of place.
