Description: The Meyer Hospital a unique building -- the awareness of those who are busy every day between those walls are reflected in an architectural project aimed at the physical, psychological and emotional well-being of the child and his family. A structure integrated into the landscape with reduced environmental impact. In particular, the new center for the reception and orientation of family members, is already an example on an international level. The text by Adolfo Baratta describes and analyzes the hospital structure project, accompanied by brief but incisive testimonials from doctors and health workers, parents and children who are fighting their health battle here.
