When the Genesis Health Group embarked on a journey to build a new medical facility from the ground up, they took advantage of the opportunity to dramatically reimagine their workplace. Using LEAN design methodology, they were able to provide an even more enhanced and supportive environment for patients and their families.
The facility design also had to fit into the surrounding office park in terms of aesthetics and use of materials. The use of brick, metal wall panels, and glass curtain wall not only tie into the surrounding context, but also create visual impact, scale, and texture to mitigate the mass of what is essentially a “big box”. In addition the glass curtain wall and storefront windows allow natural daylight to penetrate deep into the building.
