project description:

The subject of the architectural competition is the reconstruction and extension of an existing pavilion that has reached the end of its lifespan and is to be newly repurposed for the National Telemedicine Centre. The operational programme combines selected medical disciplines, bringing together outpatient, research, and educational functions in a single location. By composing the project from three distinct volumes, the building attains a human scale while forming a harmonious whole. This idea permeates the entire project—from the spatial and operational organisation to the technological and energy-related solutions, all the way to the final façade aesthetics. Building F1 is a solid, masonry-like volume with thick walls and traditional windows. As the tallest of the three masses, it accommodates the technical facilities for the entire operation as well as staff areas. Functionally, it acts as the central communication hub from which the adjoining parts of the complex are accessed. Building F2 is a transparent volume derived from the building’s structural grid. Its regular transverse module is a defining element not only for the spatial arrangement but also for the façade architecture. This wing houses NTMC’s office programme, an allergology unit, and the student section with classrooms, laboratories, and a lecture hall. The F3 extension is attached across a daylit atrium. Its defining element consists of tall shading louvers, and it accommodates outpatient consultation rooms. The chosen concept ensures clear orientation within a building where multiple operations and user groups intersect.
