Patients from the world over are treated in Europe's largest university orthopaedics centre. The circular building blends harmoniously with the forest landscape of the Eisenberg region and promotes 'healing architecture'. Introduced by Matteo Thun, healing architecture is the concept whereby patients have a view of the greenery outside to promote the healing process.

Sustainable wood, warm colours and modern desing dominate the 128 patient rooms. The multiple occupancy rooms are arranged with beds, the bathroom and winter garden staggered and fitted with curtains to provide privacy and retreat when required. Over 2,500 metres of curtain track SG 6010 are installed, with multiple curved profiles in each room, all following the radius of the façade. Suspended and curved room divider SG 6100 is specified in the three restaurants.
