      Rob Masters, lead healthcare architect for the MSK Pavilion Design Team, explains the detailed design requirements for the operating rooms and patient floors in the new Pavilion.

      • Operating rooms require significant square footage to accommodate clinical teams, instrumentation, and advanced technology
      • Floor-to-floor height is driven by equipment needs, structural requirements, and mechanical systems
      • Patient room designs are based on minimum criteria for intensive care unit rooms, with similar infrastructure requirements as operating rooms
      • Floor plans demonstrate the clinical density of the building, with no extraneous space
