这个新的10层，2.91亿美元的城市结构容纳了三个不同的学科，即布法罗大学、卡莱达健康和雅各布斯研究所，同时促进了目前正在进行的快速变化。戛纳设计公司的Yazdani工作室领导了将3个机构聚集在一起的过程，并开发了一个可以创造协同思维的物理空间。

This new 10-story, $291 million urban structure accommodates three different disciplines, University at Buffalo, Kaleida Health and Jacobs research institute, while facilitating the rapid changes each is currently undergoing. Yazdani Studio of Cannon Design led the process of bringing 3 institutions together and developing a physical space that could create synergistic thinking.

该设计在一个高性能的设施-“翻译研究、教育、商业和临床护理”中，满足了4种不同文化的有时相互冲突的功能需求。该建筑为病人护理和研究实验室提供了空间，也为原型制造、研究资金专家和研究出版物提供了空间。将三个客户和不断发展的学科整合到一个建筑中，就需要一个适应性强的建筑。将建筑核心与楼板一侧隔开，通过创造不受约束的房地产，最大限度地提高了灵活性。每个客户所共有的程序元素是并置的，鼓励协作和分享想法。

The design accommodates the sometimes conflicting functional needs of 4 different cultures in one high-performance facility – translational research, education, business, and clinical care. The building offers space for patient care and research labs as well as a prototype fabrication, research funding specialists, and research publication. Integrating three clients and evolving disciplines into one building necessitated an adaptable building. Isolating the building core to one side of the floor plate maximizes flexibility by creating unfettered real estate. Program elements common to each client were collocated, encouraging collaboration and the sharing of ideas.

为了支持成为一个欧元œ100年建筑的目标，该结构使用了一个医疗设施的规划模块，该模块可以很容易地从一种类型的设施调整到一种完全不同的类型，从而促进扩展和适应未来的技术，并将建筑区域转换成完全不同的功能。

To support the goal of being a “100 year building,” the structure utilizes a planning module for healthcare facilities that can be readily adapted from one type of facility to a radically different type, facilitating expansion, and accommodation of future technologies and conversion of building zones to entirely different functions.
