Heart Retreat House

The heart-shaped house, designed by Veliz Arquitecto in 2021, is inspired by the organic configuration of the Heart, which uses its shape to function as a living entity that provides natural ventilation and lighting. Work dedicated to all doctors and health workers around the world for the outstanding work they have done in these trying times.

The right facade of the heart-shaped house directs ventilation into the pulmonary artery and lungs via the pulmonary valve. The house is oxygenated as it passes through its interior and returns to the individual via the pulmonary veins on the roof, entering the left atrium and thus completing a continuous shekel.
