Daniel Statham Studio’s Latest Project MedAI Broke Ground in Chongqing, China

After a dedicated three-year design journey, we are proud to announce the highly anticipated groundbreaking of our debut healthcare project in southwest China: MedAI Chongqing.

Located in the idyllic Jingguan Town, Chongqing, with a total investment of GBP 557 million and a building area of approximately 2,600,000 sqm, MedAI proposes the world’s first healthcare community that integrates artificial intelligence and neo-medical wellness – redefining high-end, intelligent medical living.

Inspired by Art, Futurism, and AI technology, the ‘Mothership Medical AI’ concept breaks away from traditional elderly care models. The project will feature:

  • A self-built tertiary rehabilitation hospital and a leading national research institute.
  • An immersive high-end experience centre with a striking pyramid-within-inverted-pyramid structure.
  • AI-driven intelligent residential apartments, offering comprehensive lifestyle amenities including sports, leisure, shopping, dining, salons, exhibitions, and cinema.

The project is progressing in three phases, with Phase 1 currently under construction. Upon completion, MedAI will stand as a key benchmark for the Chengdu-Chongqing economic circle and a core pillar of the intelligent health and elderly care industry.

At the groundbreaking ceremony, Chief Architect Daniel Statham explained the design philosophy, “Beyond all the innovation and technical language, our design is about creating and maintaining a vibrant community – bringing people together, fostering new relationships, and enabling a well-deserved life in later years.”
