Tiivistelmä (eng):In this thesis, conceptual explorations in the design of modular smart health care facilities have been sought for.
A new approach towards the modular design of distantly connected built environments has been introduced that can serve to improve the quality of health care services.
The results of this research led to developing a new concept for an engineering product that can have diverse use cases.

The proposed healthcare unit concept can be used as a single patient room in hospitals or in patient's home and can create a compactable, clean, sanitized, customized, and relaxing space for patients or for the elderly who need special care, making it possible to monitor their status and vital signals remotely and helping to reduce infection rates in hospitals.
The user requirements for the product, the product design and development methods, manufacturing methods, and management and lifecycle issues were considered during the concept design.

In the course of design, while many established product development and engineering design methodologies were used, new engineering design methodologies were also developed for measuring resource effectiveness of the design solutions.
The newly developed measures can be utilized in a variety of design practices.
The validity of the newly introduced methodologies was checked with the designed product as a case study and with the help of workshops and other case studies.

This thesis can be looked into as a sample of a systematic design decision making for designing buildings and structures and the results of such a design can be a revolutionary view towards connected modular facilities.
Engineering design principles such as Structure Sharing, Affordance, Prototyping, Design Engineering, QFD Analysis, Modularization, etc. and design and manufacturing technologies such as Direct Digital Manufacturing(DDM), 3D Printing, CNC Laser Cutting, CAD and 3D Modeling, MCAD and Simulations, Rendering and Visualizations, Virtual Reality (VR), etc. were reviewed and utilized in the course of this Master's thesis.
