Australia's role in modern hospital design 1925-1960; developing a heritage framework

该项目的国家效益将是更好地了解澳大利亚医院的建筑形式——从微观到宏观——如何将社会改革、医学和建筑等方面结合在一起，成为关键的社区建筑。经济效益可能来自以下方面：1)通过对过去的更深入的了解和创新理念和实践的结合，将这些知识传授给当前的医院建筑师和规划者；2)建立健全的遗产框架，以考虑医院建筑的保存和适应性再利用；3)展示全球参与对澳大利亚建筑和社会的好处。

The national benefit of this project will be the greater understanding of how the built form - from the micro to the macro level - of Australian hospitals have brought together aspects of social reform, medicine and architecture to become key community buildings. Economic benefit may be derived from: 1) the transfer of this knowledge to current hospital architects and planners through greater understanding of the past and incorporation of innovative ideas and practices; 2) the creation of robust heritage frameworks for considering preservation and adaptive re-use of hospital buildings; and 3) to demonstrate the benefits of global engagement to Australian architecture and society.
