Abstract
This research discusses the literature review that covers three aspects related to the context of Palestine: Palestinians background; special considerations related to interior architecture and interior design; and health system in Palestine. The literature review discusses general information that provides an overview of the importance of creating a dedicated children's hospital in Palestine. The context of this study identified four important factors that may have a potential influence on healthcare design in Palestine, particularly children's hospital design. Such issues provide a strong platform to conduct qualitative research that uses an innovative workshop format for a new children’s hospital in Palestine. The key findings of this research provide recommendations for the design of children's hospitals, particularly public spaces in the context of Palestine. Keywords Children’s hospitals, Architecture, Culture, Healthcare system
