The Interdisciplinary Tumour Centre that we designed and planned at the University of Freiburg Medical Center was formally opened on 3 May 2019. An open house took place on 4 May. The new building will now be the central Medical Center access point for cancer patients. It consolidates oncology wards that were previously spread across the Medical Center site. Finance minister Edith Sitzmann also attended the opening on Friday.

The interior of the building is bright and spacious. A clear spatial structure around two interior courtyards and a colour concept that gives each floor its own colour scheme make orientation easier. The patient room walls designed by artists are a special feature. A large portion of the building’s art budget was invested here.
