The 10000-bed Lucknow Cancer Hospital is spread across an area of over 100 acres at a strategic location, easily accessible from the main spine and abutting the green strip in the proposed CG City.
inspired by the best global models of hospitals, it is designed as an integrated whole even as the individual components go about their business with the required pace and proficiency. As first impression matters a great deal, a large shaded entrance foyer where one arrives before moving on to the various departments and under which is nestled the information and help desks. It reveals itself as an open air amphitheater with great views of the landscape on the other side.
Cafes, shops and other conveniences make the plaza the core of the medi-city. The high end and heavily equipped set of 20 operation theaters and ICU block designed with slit windows and a double skin seems like a perforated light box signifying life and hope; literally and metaphorically forms the heart of the hospital.
