The Association of Polish Architects Poznań Branch, together with the Maria Skłodowska-Curie Wielkopolska Oncology Center , has announced a competition for the design of an expansion of the WCO to include a new building for Outpatient Oncology, Prevention, Molecular and Imaging Diagnostics at Garbary Street in Poznań.

purpose

The purpose of the Competition is to obtain the best architectural, spatial and functional-utility concept for the extension of the existing building complex of the Wielkopolska Oncology Center with the building of Ambulatory Oncology, Prophylaxis, Molecular and Imaging Diagnostics at Garbary Street in Poznan together with the development of the area around the designed building. The organizers of the competition expect participants to submit projects that meet the needs of modern oncological medicine, with a particular emphasis on the treatment of children. The facility is ultimately intended to become the main center for oncological treatment using advanced radiation therapy technologies in Wielkopolska and the whole country. The proposed concepts should express the aspiration of the Wielkopolska Oncology Center to be a pioneer in radiotherapy treatment and scientific research in oncology.

terms and conditions

The competition is a one-stage and implementation competition.

The designed facility is to be divided into 7 blocks organized according to the functions they perform. Blocks are planned to serve technical and teaching functions, pediatric and adult oncology, storage and archival functions, skin oncology prevention, dosimetry and treatment planning, genetics and radiobiology, and the Department of Epidemiology and Prevention with a cancer registry.

Internalcommunication should separate the movement of healthy patients, patients undergoing treatment and children as much as possible. The building should also meet high accessibility standards for people with mobility disabilities. The facility should be designed to be compatible with sustainable development.

Due to the splitting of the buildings belonging to the Wielkopolska Oncology Center into several objects, located on two sides of Garbary Street and the planned parking lot deep inside the plot 3/14, the possibility of internal communication between the separated parts should be ensured. It is assumed that an aboveground, enclosed connector will be designed through Garbary Street, which will allow a functional and communicational connection with the existing buildings of the Wielkopolska Oncology Center. Due to the proximity of the historic St. Francis Seraphim Church at 22 Garbary Street, the planned connector should have a neutral, light and transparent form,

The plots of land intended for the project area are located within the historical buildings of Poznań under conservation supervision, therefore all solutions introduced at the stage of design and construction of the building, the scope of works, program, methods and technologies, materials planned to be used should be agreed with the Municipal Conservator of Monuments. As you can read in the conservation findings, the form of the building, including the connector, should harmonize with the existing buildings, both historical and modern.
