Competition for the design of the Lubuskie University Oncology Center at the Karol Marcinkowski University Hospital in Zielona Góra.

organizer: Karol Marcinkowski University Hospital in Zielona Gora, SARP Branch Zielona Gora | investor: Karol Marcinkowski University Hospital in Zielona Gora

The Karol Marcinkowski University Hospital in Zielona Góra, in cooperation with the Association of Polish Architects, Zielona Góra Branch, has announced a competition to develop a concept for the buildings of the Lubuskie University Oncology Center at the University Hospital, together with the retrofitting of the Department of Pathomorphology and the Department of Radiotherapy, as well as land development. {More}

TheKarol Marcinkowski University Hospital in Zielona Góra, in cooperation with the Association of Polish Architects, Zielona Góra Branch, has announced a competition to develop a concept for the buildings of the Lubuskie University Oncology Center (LUCO) at the University Hospital, together with the retrofitting of the Department of Pathomorphology and the Department of Radiotherapy, as well as land development.

purpose

The purpose of the competition, as we read in the regulations, is to obtain the best architectural, spatial and functional-utility concept for the hospital buildings.

terms and conditions

The competition is a one-stage, implementation, limited competition.

The subject of the competition is the architectural and spatial concept of the new Oncology Center (LUCO) building with an aboveground connector functionally integrating it with the existing Central Operating Block located in the C1 building (CBO expansion) and land development. The interconnection of the facilities (the new rooms are to be a structural part of the existing CBO) is expected to facilitate personnel management, distribution of operations and increase treatment efficiency. A connection between the LUCO building and the adjacent Polyclinic building is also under consideration.

The planned development is located in the northeastern part of the hospital site. The site has existing one-story buildings slated for demolition.

The scope also includes the purchase of medical and non-medical equipment for the listed Departments, Laboratory or Department of Nuclear Medicine, Department of Radiotherapy and Pathomorphology, located in other facilities of the Hospital, but functionally related to the created Oncology Center.

The project should take into account the ongoing reconstruction of the internal traffic system of the Hospital site, which is being carried out under the Polish Order program.

The main considerations are: adaptation of the task to the budget; use of construction technologies that take into account the two-year term of the investment and the limited size of construction facilities; limitation of noise and other construction nuisances; use of technologies using the closed-cycle economy (the 3R principle: reduce, reuse, recycle); optimization of the energy properties of the building, aiming to reduce the operating costs of the facility; possibility of staging the investment in the execution of construction works.
