This research is based on the perception that traditional care models are not adequately meeting the needs of adolescent cancer patients of age 18-30. In our health system young people don’t exist. The young patients frequently fall into a“no man’s land”between pediatric and adult oncology, without having a specific facility offering them the right therapy options or help to their specific questions. While survival rates for children and older patients have improved in the past 25 years, the rates for teenagers and young adults have not improved. The premise for the design of a new cancer care centre for adolescents is that the architecture reacts on the complex problems of the young people.
