A cancer treatment centre, added to an existing hospital, is the fourth of Pidgeon’s Building Case Studies, in which the development of a building is discussed by all those concerned with its design and construction.
The main requirements of the project related to the shortest time-scale to bring the centre on stream in 1993, at the same time using the most advanced equipment and diagnosis. The building won a RIBA Award in 1993.
