Angela E. Müller
Angela Müller (Salzburg, 1974) works as a consultant and architect at Parra-Müller, a Madrid based practice she started together with Marta Parra Casado in 2008. She holds a degree in Architecture and a Master´s Degree in Hospital Architecture and Infrastructures.
Apart from her architectural practice, she has been participating as a user and expert in the Spanish Ministry of Health since 2007, updating new national guidelines for a healthier and safer childbirth attention.
The work of Parra-Müller is based on their belief that only by combining evidence based design and updated clinical attention, it is possible to achieve optimized health results. Architecture and design are not only a “third caregiver”, but can also be a driving force of change. Parra-Müller focus on process-based design and the human scale in hospitals as complex structures, integrating all possible users.
Their first Natural Birth Unit received in 2017 the IIDA Healthcare Design Award in the category Hospitals-Women´s and also the IIDA Transformation & Innovation award. Last october they got awarded Architects of the Year 2018 by the National Council of the Spanish College of Architects.
