Temporary facilities at Klybeck health schools

The BZG and BfG health schools of the cantons of Basel-Stadt and Baselland were located in the Spenglerpark buildings in Münchenstein. As a result of the complete renovation of these buildings, they were temporarily housed in five existing buildings on the Klybeck site. A total of approx. 20,000 m2 of temporary school space was created there for around 1,600 users.

Blaser Architekten worked as general planners for the landowner Rhystadt AG, Basel. We were also responsible for the tenant fit-outs, including relocation planning, IT and security.

The depth of penetration into the buildings varied greatly due to the different condition of the buildings and the user requirements. The spatial programme included the creation of various classrooms for frontal and studio teaching, exercise rooms, laboratories, administration and various recreation and social rooms. A fully functional ward was installed for the training of nursing staff so that students can fully simulate the nursing situation in hospitals.

Construction began in mid-November 2020 and the school opened on schedule at the beginning of August 2021, at the start of the new academic year.
