Step-by-step renovation scheme of Burdenko General Hospital (author Ivan Moiseenko)
This is final overview of renovated hospital complex. New structure is connected with existing hospital tower and unifies the majority of hospital buildings on the plot. Hospital street connects all buildinga and departments of the hospital not only on the ground floor, but on the upper levels as well by bridges and elevators. Some of the internal yards are covered on 2d level to organize sport and special medicare activities, such as surgery block. Internal courtyards on ground level are reserved for out-patients, who come to the hospital for an appointment, while roof gardens are for in-patients of the wards. This design strategy allows to separate patient flows, which is quite important in hospital.
This scheme shows organisational spatial structure of the ground floor. Two main categories of users - doctors and patients are separated and have their own entrances and areas. At the same time, there are a lot of interaction and public spaces on the ground floor. Hospital street, the main artery of the hospital contains meeting places, shopping pavilions, and information desks. From the hospital street it is possible to get internal court yards, both covered and open ones. Upper left court yard contains surgery block with tis own entrances and ambulance parking garage. Such location of surgery block in one level provides higher level of daily operational flows.
Bottom-up flexibility design principles used in Burdenko general hospital renovation project
The purpose of this model is to test the designed modular system of the standard hospital building. Model schows up main skeleton and insterted modules.
Primary and secondary stabilized systems are also represented here. External segments of main skeleton have diagonal connections in order to stabilize structural system. They repeat in every two sections, and provide flexible internal layout together with structural stability.
Main skeleton consists of primary columns and beams with the crossection of 300 mm. Secondary horizontal beams have crossection of 120 mm and perceive the load from the modules.
Facades of the modules represent different functions of the hospital departments. This concept came to me from the complicated nature of hospital complex. Different healthcare facilities require different amount of sun light, as well as can represent themselves by various facade topics. Visitor can see different materials, and rythm of windows, which make the perception of the hospital more diverse and nonmonotoneous. Some of the modules have cantilever parts, which allows to organize terraces for in-patient wards.
Hospital facades highlight different departments represented in the complex and correlated with amount of light required for one or another function. Office and research facilities along hospital street require high amount of daylight and have wide widnowframes. Last floors of standard hospital buildings are technical ones, and do not require sunlight, in general. Colorful facade panels on this level make building more playful. levels of hospital departments has their own facade themes, and deliver human scale for internal court yards.
This number of different facade solutions makes an entire complex diverse and non-monotoneous. By being inside, visitors can see different themes and scales, which, again, makes hospital perception diversified. Hospital street has identical facade solution, which corresponds with connectivity function of this place, while different hospial buildings have different facade topics. All together they create an interesting solution with different layers and themes.
Economic feasibility of prefab solutions in hospital construction
Graduation project, Delft University of Technology
(MSc Management in the built environment)
Task: Financial assessment of modular construction in hospitals
Authors: Ivan Moiseenko
Design: 2016 - 2017
Supervisors: Ruben Vrijhoef, Peter de Jong
This master thesis project is a continuation of the work done by me in Politecnico di Milano, where my graduation project was design proposal of modular general hospital. Hospital typology is in my focus for several years already, based on its complicated nature and demand to combine technological issues with spatial and architectural quality.
Milan project examined most relevant trends in modern hospital development and focused on flexibility in hospital building. Hospital flexibility is one of the main strategies in hospital design and construction today, since obsolescence of medical facilities is such a quick that hospital requires a renovation after 10 years of use (Capolongo et al, 2012). In order to test all aspects of hospital flexibility, the real general hospital in Pensa, one of the Russian cities, was taken for the analysis and renovation flexible project was designed. Renovation proposal was done in a modular way to test this flexible scenario. (see previous pages of this part).
In order to research feasibility aspects of modular hospital development, the standard module from Milan project was analyzed and compared with conventional construction process. The purpose was to understand whether any savings in time and cost in modular hospital construction comparing to traditional one. The outcome of the research is represented on the next pages.
Main research question:
To which extent are prefab solutions in healthcare design and construction are more economically feasible than traditional methods?
Feasibility study research concept
Feasibility is a degree to which the economic advantages of something to be made, done, or achieved are greater than the economic costs
2 fields are selected for feasibility analysis:
Feasibility study theoretical explanation (author Ivan Moiseenko)
Based on the analysis of different parameters in design, construction and use phases, savings in modular construction were identified and summarized by me in this final table. Savings in design phase are highly depend on client request and amount of predesigned elements. The higher this amount is and the lower the client’s demand for changing of the standard layout, the higher time and costs savings in this phase of modular construction.
Savings in construction phase come from the nature of module’s production process with fixed number of operations, strict regulations of resources flow and indoor assembly environment. These factors allow to save up to 30% in costs and up to 80% in time, based on quick assembly of completed modules on construction site.
Use phase results in 0,5% reductions in annual maintenance costs, as well as up to 50% in refurbishment phase, mostly based on fixed number of components inside the module and responsibility of one general manufacturer for their change. Finally, relocation of the modular building is an exclusive preregative of modular construction, which allows to use building several times in different locations.

Place For Play _ Modular playground environment
Task: Design of the modular playground environment
Authors: Ivan Moiseenko, Tamara Varlamova
Design: 2017 - present
Location: Multiple locations around the globe
Status: Design, Prototyping, Under construction
Place For Play is a modular playground environment use to be as a universal instrument which gives a human, from small children to their grandparents, an opportunity to design and built thier own play scenario, and to modify it immediatelly they would like to do so.
Basic unit of this environment is a block, which can be made from wood, plastic, silicone and other materials. These blocls can be assembled into indefinite number of combinations which is limited only by player’s imagine. Thanks to very easy connection method on the one hand, and sufficient number of modification, on the other hand, these blocks are useful for all types of play, equally indoor and outdoor. Players can use single bolcks as cars, bricks, benches and any other objects, as well as to build shelters, houses, walls, labyrinths and infinite number of other combinations to play.
The main principle which lays down in this idea is Free Play Principle. It allows players to make a play according to their pwn scenario and does not limit them by certain forms of elements, special details or other predefined parameters. Instead of, the blocks, these basic units, are abstrat and very common in order not to limitate children in their fantasies.
Another very important principle of Place For Play is a principle of collaborative design, which means that all members of local community are involved into its design.
What for play spaces are needed?
They are not needed.
Children play everywhere without any special “playful” places.
But the opportunities of urban environment are limited. That is why demand for DEDICATED and SAFE place for FREE PLAY is emerged.
Free Play principle
It is better to fill in play spaces by open objects which are:
TRANSFORMABLE
PROVIDE DIFFERENT SCENARIOS OF PLAY
REMAIN ATTRACTIVE FOR A LONG TIME
“Adults are often think they perfectly understand what children need, but than playgrounds lock and fix actions and imagination of children”
U. Richter
Collaborative Design
Local community does not participate in creation of play spaces. The result is:
- the necessities of the community are not taken into account
- disunity
- vandalism
The involvement of the local community in the design and further construction process gives:
- Emergence of social connections
- Satisfaction of individual needs of community
- Sense of belonging
Place for Play is a language for communication and self-expression
2. How it works?
Letters
“Letter” is a basic element of constructor. These elements make “words”, but they can be self-sufficient for play, since each block can pretend car, house, rock, etc.
How it works?
Words
The 2d level, “words”, or blocks, is made from letters of 1st level. “Words” are small independent objects built in 1:1 scale
3. How it works?
Sentences
“Words” form “Sentences”, the 3rd level of environment, which is scaled by the players. By using “sentences” you can make something where you fit and hide yourself.
4. How it works? Text
“Sentences” make “Text” - full-scale playful environment for everyone.

This project was my MSc design studio in Politecnico di Milano under the leadership of Cino Zucchi, Milanese architect and professor of Politecnico di Milano. The design task was to deliver a modular hotel in the center of Milan, with public space next to it. Alexandra focused on design of the public space, and I concentrated on modular building design as it was already my core interest in 2014. I came to the number of internal mini-atriums which group modular units around themselves, while the ground floor is elevated to provide the range of public activities under the shadow of the first floor ceiling slab.

Feldsher-obstetric station.
This project is a part of regional program for development of modular health care centers. Modular technology is extremely efficient specifically in medical facilities, and this is the reason why Moscow aglomeration is looking towards this way of design, bid and built way of completion its new medical facilities.
I was invited to the group developing the number of modular healthcare facilities in big contech company. We started from the feldsher-obstetric station designed fo serve for the daily dispansarization of the local people.
Due to technological limitations based on weight of the modules designed for reinforced cocnrete the building was subdivided into 15 modules each weight around 25 tones.
All modules were factory produced and MEP and internal finishings were installed off-site. The design scope was agreed with local authorities.
The design stage was really intensive since production process of the prototypes started almost at the same time. The photos of completed prototype are represented a few pages later.
This feldsher-obstetric station is the pilot project and going to be completed at the end of 2022. There are 5 more centers are going to be built in the next year as well.
Beside feldsher-obstetric station there are ambulance stations and some other local medical facilities which are going to be completed based on modular technology in the region.

1. Process Maps.
Process maps is a powerful instrument not only for visualization of existing processes in the company, but also for their adaptation and development. Process maps take the beginning in automobile industry, especially in Japanese automotive culture. By using such structured, graphically simple and visually friendly schemes for representation of the process in any company it is possible, first of all, to fixate a status quo, and, then, to improve it during collaborative meetings and brainstorm sessions. These process maps are extremely important for new employees who might
get stuck at the beginning. The example of tender process map shown above help legal and tender departments to follow the exact process and do not lose any piece of information in order to close contracts on time and within the budget. Moreover, instead of preparing long text documents and company standards which are, many times, hard to read, these maps are catchy, simple and provide an overview of any process. It is also very easy to adjust processes in the company by working with such graphic schemes.

2. Metrics.
Metrics is a powerful tool for collecting and visualization of data for any company. The architectural office I worked for uses such parameters as planned and actual working hours spent for the projects, number of people in working teams and other factros to manage the company. Although this data was used in the office long time ago, there was no effective and intuitive tool which represents all these charts in a user-friendly way. That is why I initiated the process of design such effective visual tool which
should be visible on the internal web-portal of the company. Together with my colleague we prepared detailed technical brief which described all the instruments we would like to use. We drew diagrams, charts, tables and formulas to give a powerful tool to all management teams in the company.
Now on, when this tool is in use, it is easy for everybody to check many parameters of the company and to be aware when planning the activities.
