Competition Assignment
RIBA Competitions is pleased to announce the launch of a ‘Competitive Procedure with Negotiation’ for a multi-disciplinary design team for a proposed joint eye care, research and education facility for Moorfields Eye Hospital and UCL Institute of Ophthalmology.

The partners propose to plan, design, build and operate a new integrated care, education and research facility at a preferred site at St Pancras Hospital in London. The new facility will be flexible and modern, enabling them to bring together eye research, education and healthcare for the first time, while being focused on patients and attracting and retaining the best ophthalmic scientists, educators and clinicians.

This presents a rare and complex design challenge for architects worldwide to secure a high-profile, global opportunity to produce a design for a new, state-of-the-art facility in an important regeneration and conservation area in the heart of London.

At the first phase, Expressions of Interest are invited from innovative, multi-disciplinary design teams by completing the Selection Questionnaire. The evaluation of the submitted Selection Questionnaires will lead to a shortlist of up to five design teams to prepare design proposals, who will each receive an equal honorarium of £15,000 +VAT.
