Scheldedok is a large health center with three floors, bringing together various healthcare providers under one roof.

Green peek throughs
The circular windows in the building establish a connection between the healthcare inside and the park outside. Additionally, the greenery from the park extends onto the façade, to mirror the park.

B-too has designed the healthcare center for delegated developer BbDW, and B-invented has fully engineered it. The realization has been executed by the sister company B-happy. The health center is a continuation of the buildings on the imaginary dike.

Project leader Fon van den Bussche
The health center is named Scheldedok, referring to the Oosterschelde that once flowed there. “’Dok’ relates to shipping, the repair of ships in a dock. Now, the name aligns with medical care for people.”
