The building is compact yet articulated at its edges to reduce visual impact, and it blends into the landscape through green roofs, terraces, and therapeutic gardens that support both care and wellbeing. Pertini Park is restored and expanded, providing new green areas and improved environmental quality for both patients and the wider community.

Sustainability plays a key role in the design: the hospital uses renewable energy sources, recycled materials, and rainwater collection systems, while encouraging soft mobility.
Interior spaces are organized for maximum efficiency and flexibility, with clear circulation routes, distinct functional areas, and a design approach that places the wellbeing of patients, staff, and visitors at the center—guided by universal design principles.

With nearly 90,000 sqm of surface area, 488 beds (344 of which are high-care, with 40% in single rooms), the new Livorno Hospital positions itself as a cutting-edge healthcare facility—designed to meet the present and future needs of the city, while honoring the site’s memory and offering a welcoming, efficient, and sustainable environment.
