Project Description
The new pavilion completes the transformation of the existing 1950s campus into a rigorously functioning hospital complex.
A deliberate sequence of spaces, clarity of organization, and material transparency evoke the spirit of calm fundamental to the practice of public medicine. The curved glass enclosure of the atrium offers expansive views of both sky and garden, while the building’s exterior facade reflects and provides layered views of the leafy garden behind. Visitors enter from the west through a colonnaded overhang. Clinical spaces are accessed via sweeping public circulation gallerias and brightly lit waiting areas. The sequence of spaces leading to the glazed atrium is the beginning of a public circulation spine that logically configures the entire campus. Inpatient, outpatient, and diagnostic facilities are thus woven together in a carefully planned horizontal tapestry of associated uses.
