The research method used is qualitative with a case study approach and analysis of space requirements based on class D hospital service standards. Data collection techniques involve field observations, interviews with related parties, and document reviews including hospital design guidelines and government regulations.

The architectural approach with a modern tropical design concept, which is adjusted to the local climate and site conditions in North Tolitoli. This approach aims to create environmentally friendly, energy efficient, and functional buildings, taking into account natural air circulation, lighting, and the use of local materials. The results of the study show that this Class D Pratama Hospital is able to meet the health needs of the community by providing main rooms such as the Emergency Room, polyclinic, inpatient room, laboratory, and pharmacy. Architecture is required to continue to innovate and develop architectural designs that are adaptive to climate, including tropical climates, as well as improving the quality of health facilities in remote areas as a contribution to architectural science in the field of health facility design.]]>
