Across the time frame with inclusion of modern techniques, novel monitoring systems and care-facilities, healthcare industry today has moved beyond its singular functional constrain of treating critically ill-patients. This push has challenged the Architecture industry to generate better design determinants in reshaping the Hospital Infrastructure, which can meet comprehensive healthcare needs. As each Architectural Design largely varies in terms of hospital type and patient type they cater to, ARCH-EN DESIGN runs thorough inspection of such limiting factors to derive custom solutions under varied budget ranges.
