Project Description
2014 AIA Dallas Honor Award
The Moncrief Cancer Institute houses the newly-created Community Survivorship Clinic, which supports cancer patients after their treatment and provides follow-up services. It was designed as a place where patients feel welcomed by a unique orientation of materials, color and light. A large public plaza welcomes the community while two more private, intimate gardens provide space for functions and a healing environment for survivors. Inside, extensive use of glazing gives workers and patients a strong connection with the outside, bringing in abundant natural light.
