Abstract: Hôpital Source de Vie is a conceptual hospital designed to strengthen healthcare infrastructure in Les Cayes, Haiti, a region vulnerable to natural disasters and increasing population pressures due to instability in Port-au-Prince. Developed in collaboration with Build Health International and Haitian nursing students, the design emphasizes resilience, patient well-being, and sustainability, achieving net-zero energy emissions while exceeding standards set forth by the American Institute of Architects. With a flexible interior layout and room to expand, the hospital aims to remain an important asset for Les Cayes and the broader country for years to come.
