Abstract

A Cancer Health Care Centre in Copenhagen is created through the concept of healing architecture, declaring that architecture can have a positive effect on the healing and health of the cancer patients. The centre is created with inspiration in evidence based design, concentrated on the conditions and needs of cancer diagnosed people, and five cases of cancer centres in United Kingdom and Denmark provide essential experiences of the architectural effects for creating a soothing environment with an ambience suitable for people in a difficult phase of their lives.
