RSPCA - Animal Centres of the Future
This is a proposal for a low cost modular Veterinary Centre for the RSPCA
The concept of this building is to arrange a series of fully standardised and extendable modular dog kennel and cat pen blocks linked via two main spines that can be arranged to suit any site shape or size. Each block will ‘plug-in’ to the spine-link together with all other facilities.
Situated to the front of the site will be a larger block housing the reception, intake centre, meeting rooms and the veterinary suite. This block will be adapted to reflect the size of the centre and site constraints. The design encompasses three main goals:
Modular timber-framed buildings that can be built quickly at a reduced cost.
Achieve high levels of environmental/energy efficiency.
Kit of parts that can be easily replicated on different sites.
Our vision for the veterinary centre is that all areas such as the x-ray, consult, triage rooms and prep area are standardised for ease of manufacture and replication and enables total familiarisation for veterinary staff working across different RSPCA sites.
