Riga Red Cross hospital is restored sustainably, thoroughly taking one step at the time. Historical details are meticulously preserved against the backdrop of a symbiotic relationship between a compassionate environment and modern medical and engineering systems. It is energy efficient, with the hot/cold air being dispensed from the ceiling, without obstructing the view of the architectural design. It now has a surgical block, with a state-of-the-art operating theatre, an outpatient department, and a façade with an entry portico and a curved ramp – a historical landmark anchor of Grīziņkalns.
