Chris Thom author of the recently published “Health Design in New Zealand” will speak on many forces that have shaped our medical heritage.
‘Hospitals are among the largest of public buildings in our communities and require significant investment of Society’s resources in their creation and operation.  Most people will use them at some point in their lives, often at a time of personal crisis. Yet Healthcare facilities not to be well represented in architectural histories or awards’
