Health Unit in The Olympic Village ‘Polyclinic’

A contemporary health unit has been constructed within the area of the Olympic Village, which initially served the needs of the athletes of the Olympic Games and of their escorts, who resided in the Olympic Village during the Olympic and Paralympic Games. The budget for this project was 4.588.343€ and the contract for its design was awarded to our company, ‘Takis Gavrilis & Partners’ after entering the design competition for this project.
The unit offers services related to emergency cases, diagnostic services and light physiotherapy. For the needs of the users during the Olympic and Paralympic Games, the unit has been equipped with physiotherapy equipment, a small doping control departments as well as offices for the Medical Olympic Committee (I.O.C.). The overall design, developed in two floors and a basement, was dictated by the special use of the building, the shape and orientation of the plot, the accessibility to the various departments, and its relationship to the village.
The aesthetic appearance of the building, externally and internally, was of a particular concern. The intention was to create a pleasant ambience matching colors and materials. Metal elements have been used on all elevations as shade for bioclimatic purposes but also in order to mark the entrances.
The surrounding area has been designed so that it provides easy access to the various entrances, sitting areas with benches and open-air furniture, parking places, ramps and rails facilitating the circulation of pedestrians around the place. Similar facilities have been provided also on the inside of the building for Persons with Special Needs, according to the Building Regulations.
