The HELIX Centre (HELIX stands for Healthcare Innovation Exchange) a joint initiative between the Royal College of Art (RCA) and Imperial College London (ICL) will focus on cost-effective, high-impact, design‐led initiatives that can transform healthcare both in developed and developing health systems. The unique design, part of the RCA Live Projects, programme, designed by MA Architecture students is founded on the belief that the architects’ future authorship resides in the design and patents of components that are easily transported and assembled by unskilled communities. Accepting one day all buildings will be kit-build made in community workshops and assembled by community needs.
