D'amour Center for Cancer Care
Hope and tranquility permeate the D'amour Center for Cancer Care in Springfield, Massachusetts, largely owing to the interaction of a handsome architectural plan and a beautifully designed lighting scheme. The 64,000-square-foot, three-story building is the product of a dedicated team that included not only the Boston-based firm Steffian Bradley Architects (responsible for the architectural, lighting and interior design), but cancer survivors and activists, medical staff, and hospital administrators. Together these visionaries have created a space that brings notes of optimism and life to the foreground, dispatching clinical elements to the background.
