The new building of the Almazov centre will accommodate premises for cardiac surgery, hematological transplantations, stem cells transplantations and other cutting-edge operations. The geometry of the land parcel inspired the final planning solution – there will appear a composition of three volumes of various dimensions set in a succession along the frontage line. Each volume contains one function. The high-rise oval tower standing at the corner of the parcel will become a patient treatment centre (Block 1). According to the existing regulations, the rooms for the inpatients occupy the first 12 floors, while the upper floors accommodate surgery rooms, diagnostic department, administration and teaching unit.

The small circular building located behind the tower will function as a conference-hall for various research symposia and exhibitions (Block 2).

The rectangular volume set behind the conference-building (Block 3) is the last addition to the existing complex. The 'blocks' are interconnected by the landscaped roof of the stylobate and the basement storey that contains all of the technological links of the complex.
