Beginning with a master plan in 1993, the original design phase took about two and a half years, but the total design period extended close to 10 years due to multiple revisions during construction. The construction period lasted about 4 years and 8 months. The original design was a collaboration between Junglim Architecture and the U.S. firm Ellerbe Becket, combining over 20 years of hospital design&nbsp;expertise&nbsp;from Junglim with Ellerbe Becket\u2019s specialized healthcare planning and innovative ideas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The New Severance Hospital pursued the goals of being&nbsp;state-of-the-art, comfortable, efficient, and future-oriented.
