The new $315 million facility, which opened in
August 2020, includes 171 private patient rooms,
six operating rooms/interventional suites, new
radiology and imaging services, and a larger
emergency department and trauma center. The
four-story building is divided into two sides and
UST ACROSS THE Golden Gate
Bridge from San Francisco,
Marin County offers a spectacular natural setting that has
long lured city dwellers seeking more space and a direct
connection to nature. Marin's
district hospital, MarinHealth
Medical Center (formerly Marin General)
in Greenbrae, Calif., benefits from those exceptional surroundings with views of Mount
Tamalpais, the county's highest peak; Corte
Madera Creek; and an adjacent 27-acre park.
When it came time to address California's
2030 earthquake-compliance standards, the
healthcare organization decided to replace its
outdated hospital with a new 265,000-squarefoot facility called Oak Pavilion, relocating the
majority of the hospital's essential services and
inpatient beds here while still connecting to
some of the existing campus buildings. The new
acute care facility would be designed to improve
and enhance the patient and staff experience
through larger rooms, modern material and
color palettes, and clinical spaces designed to
accommodate new technology and treatments,

all while enhancing connections to the natural
beauty outside through biophilic design. " The
uniqueness of Marin's location speaks a lot to
why biophilic design had to be a part of this
project, " says Jason Haim, principal and executive director at Perkins Eastman (Los Angeles),
which served as the architect and healthcare
planner for the project. " After all, people move
to Marin to be connected to nature, so you can't
take that away from them in a building in which
they are seeking care. "
The healthcare organization was on board
with the goal, as well, working closely with the
architects to bring the outdoors in. " MarinHealth is committed to providing an exceptionally healing environment, so harnessing the
healing power of nature was always central to
the design process for the Oak Pavilion, " says
Vernon Moreno, vice president of support services at MarinHealth Medical Center.
ABOVE: Biophilic elements
integrated throughout
the building include five
indoor/outdoor solarium
" living rooms, " which
build connections between
the patient bed units
and the facility's tranquil
surroundings. RIGHT: An
aluminum sunshade system on the façade helps
MarinHealth Medical Center consume less energy
than the previous facility.
The outdoor portions of
the solariums are visible
at the corners.
