A modern hospital is a flexible hospital.

The Intensive care, Emergency and Operating centre (INO) was the first building in Switzerland to be planned and built in accordance with the principle of system separation. The shell of the building and the support structure form the primary system which was planned and executed independently of the secondary system. Within this structure, IB developed the secondary system which consists of modular concepts with interchangeable room building blocks. In the process, free strategic space was deliberately provided for.
The INO comprises the following areas: intensive care, A&E, the operating centre, radiology and nuclear medicine, laboratory medicine, sterilisation unit, and the abdominal centre. This makes the INO unit one of the most powerful treatment centres in Switzerland.

Interior Design

IB designed and built a functionally outstanding facility, which creates a modern, pleasant atmosphere in a comfortable and light environment.
