Text description provided by the inventors. The 9 500 m2 laboratory and logistics build houses shared investigate facilities and is home to the Clinical Biochemistry Division, which annually renders around nine million blood tests to the hospital and GPs. In addition, the building is made up of test rooms, laboratories, positions, as well as a depot with affiliated logistic and storage offices. Various articles are distributed to the rest of the hospital via passageways running from the vault area.

The wide-cut staircase that winds up through the midriff of the structure forms the linchpin of the building- and acts as a social, liquid space that adds coherence and outline. The building’s center staircase allows for interaction and is a life-giving axis that with a generous ply of daylight allows access to the individual investigate divisions, while also starting pockets for recreation and informal meetings.

Daylight and the working environment are in focus- the moveable exterior shutters can be controlled individually and give the researchers the possibility of creating their own daylight surroundings according to diverse task status. Collective control of the moveable shutters reaches it possible to ”close” the building when it isn’t in use and thereby avoid excessive heating or cool rates. At the same duration, the building is dynamic, in the way that it adjusts to internal the requirements and the changing climate over time.

The building is an external assistance part, which means that there is constant pleasure and a overflow of guests day and night. It is our intent to obligate the building’s various activities transparent, as well as being perceptible to areas outside, thereby contributing to the experience and caliber of the outdoor areas.

The brand-new laboratory and logistics constructing is closely connected with Nyrup’s scheduled houses from 1913, and with its simplified and precise geometry exposes respect for the special characters of the orientation. The build has open, active facades that contribute us an impression of the laboratory and logistical gatherings. The facades are created with moveable light-filtering shutters, where comfort and altering clarity originate diverse aftermaths depending on the time of day and time. The metal facade and its thorough attention to detail harmonise with the rich features of the listed builds, and are reach in gloom, anodised and stained aluminium, which with their friendlines and colouring manipulate beautifully with the cherry-red brick in the original part of the hospital.

Mikkelsen Architect had a desire to create a laboratory and logistical construct, which gathers the laboratory operates in an architectural whole and solves various technological and infrastructural challenges, while providing the framework for a dynamic and well-run workplace. The construct has brought together many different useds and functions, and it has been crucial to create a structure that is clear and understandable for all user groups.

It is an arousing challenge to create a construct that acts as a logistical and warehouse facility dealing with heavy truck congestion and goods on the ground floor, as well as the demands of the other floorings and their the investigations and laboratory facilities, where the working environment for both researchers and other staff members is on a totally different magnitude, with special requirements for sectioning, material and sound levels.

The brand-new laboratory and logistical constructing has brought together study pleasures that has already been been spread out, thus corroborating interaction across professional groups while simultaneously promoting acquaintance sharing and synergy between the different departments.
