Oncological Prevention Centre of the Masaryk Institute of Oncology through the eyes of students of the Faculty of Architecture, BUT

The future form of the Centre for Oncological Prevention of the Masaryk Institute of Oncology (MIO) was designed by graduates of the Faculty of Architecture at BUT. A total of ten diploma theses will be exhibited in the Yellow Hill Gallery in July and August. Patients and visitors will also see models of the centre's buildings, which show a possible architectural solution for the planned construction.

"Within the area of ​​the former transfusion station in the adjacent Tomešová Street, we plan to build a Centre for Oncological Prevention and Health Services. The main goal is to increase the capacity of the institute for the implementation and development of all oncological prevention programmes (primary, secondary and tertiary) and to concentrate preventive care in a separate building with its own entrance, separate from normal hospital operations. At the same time, we expect the new building to be a pleasant place where citizens of the city of Brno, the South Moravian Region and possibly other parts of the country will be happy to come for professional consultations about their lifestyle or for preventive examinations. In addition to the Cancer Prevention Centre, there will also be one smaller inpatient department on the premises with a capacity for 21 irradiated patients,” the director of the MIO, Marek Svoboda, describes the development plans.

In order to find out the possibilities of using the area of ​​the former transfusion station, the MIO addressed the Faculty of Architecture at BUT, specifically Nicol Gale and Svatopluk Sládeček from the Institute of Experimental Creation. Under their guidance, several inspiring diploma theses were created. The subject of the exhibited student work is to use models to present possible architectural solutions and the location of the future Centre for Oncological Prevention and Health Services of the MIO.

"The design seeks to respond sensitively to the need to expand the MIO premises. It finds not only ways to address the general public, but also how to use its urban-architectural solution to establish a connection between the adjacent city centre and the hospital, which is the dominant feature on the horizon of Yellow Hill," one of the exhibiting authors, Magdalena Buzová, describes the project. Architectural designs of the new centre will be exhibited in the Yellow Hill Gallery in Švejd's pavilion of the MIO until the end of August 2021. Due to the limited visits to the MIO, the exhibition is intended primarily for outpatients and hospitalized patients.
