Considering the strong technological content that the building will have to house, the design idea takes the form of a "knowledge hangar" which, like an industrial pavilion with large spans in laminated wood and exposed concrete floors, is able to adapt and flexibly welcome rapid layout changes to keep up with the latest technologies.
The building is configured as an organism with a framework in laminated wood and concrete. The building shell, characterized by the double skin glass create, a "light box" that avoid overheating and the unpleasant effects of glade inside the internal space. In addition, it guarantees the maximum contribution of natural light and visual interaction between the different indoor activities and the park. Therefore the outdoor layout and lanscape becomes a natural extension of the indoor activities.
The project combines a flexible layout with a sustainable approach thanks to the application of the most advanced environmental strategies such as the ventilated double skin façade, the application of photovoltaic panels and the use of heat pumps. Due to the new structural concept of distribution, the traditional school layout made of central corridor and perimeter classrooms is transformed in a "hangar of knowledge". A fluid and informal space that can freely accommodate the entire scientific community and their various activities.
The aim of the course is to train biomedical professional able to withstanding the rapid obsolescence of technological devices within a dynamic and productive environment.
