Gargoyles: Function and Aesthetics in Healthcare Design
Gargoyles, often seen on Gothic cathedrals, serve a functional purpose while adding an element of artistry to healthcare center designs. These water spouts can be creatively integrated into the architecture, helping to channel rainwater away from the building. Beyond their practical function, gargoyles can also serve as unique decorative elements that invoke curiosity and interest. By incorporating gargoyles into healthcare facilities, designers can draw on history and tradition, creating a connection between the past and the present.
