Fertility clinic & IVF laboratory
A specialist fertility clinic, with one-day hospital, and IVF laboratory at Grabiszyńska Street in Wrocław, Poland. The technologically complex function enables the diagnosis and treatment of women, based on the latest medical knowledge. The curved geometry, characteristic of the female body during the prenatal development of a child, determined the character of the interior.
The technologically complex medical function is divided into three interrelated zones. In a specialist clinic, within treatment rooms and interview rooms, the patient is provided with medical consultation in the field of gynaecology, genetics, treatment of partner’s infertility, oncology, prenatal diagnostics and psychology. The clinic is adjoined to a one-day hospital with an operating theatre. In the hospital, it is possible to perform minimally invasive laparoscopic procedures and diagnose diseases using technically advanced methods with the use of ultra miniature cameras and optics. An analytical laboratory and IVF laboratory are connected with the hospital. The IVF laboratory allows to treat a partner’s infertility using the in-vitro method, including ICSI, IMSI-MSOME, FAMSI, AH.
Fluid shapes, referencing the curves of a woman's body during pregnancy, are present on the floor, walls and ceiling of the waiting room and corridors. In some places they remain as two-dimensional, independent elements. In others, they connect the floor to the wall and ceiling, generating the illusion of movement. They become a three-dimensional form at the main entrance. This form is inspired by the tension of the skin on a woman's abdomen, as observed during pregnancy, the tensions caused by the muscle activity of fetal movement such as elbows and knees pressing against the womb. Textures, colours and light reflection play an important role in the interior design. Translucent surfaces are juxtaposed with opaque surfaces. Matt surfaces contrast with the light-reflecting surfaces of the individually designed graphics. The choice of colour for the graphics was carefully analysed. Ultimately, the gold colour was chosen representing one of the most precious moments in a woman’s life - pregnancy.
The facility we designed played a role during the COVID-19 pandemic. A vaccination point, used by many residents of Wrocław, was organised there. Most importantly, from the moment the clinic was opened, until January 2021, 69 couples have successfully received fertility treatment. This means at least 83 new residents of Wrocław. They are the children of people participating in the in-vitro program, implemented thanks to the support of the city of Wrocław.
