BEFORE BEFORE The public spaces for this facility were unlike the other two centers because this was an existing facility. There were many challenges when it came to designing within the box: existing floor to floor heights, existing infrastructure and structural columns, and the fact that we needed to divide the work up into many different phases to keep the facility operational through the entire construction process. J U RY C O M M E N T S : * Fantastic continuation of a theme carried throughout the facility. The colorful circular soffits provide wayfinding in a way that allows for connection from one space to another through shape yet allows for department differentiation. Color feels like it glows, often literally in the decorative resin panels. The overall feeling of the space is warm and inspiring. * They have designed a vibrant, dynamic, and colorful solution that successfully integrates the four design elements of the hospital's brand for this Mother Baby Center. * Strong concept, unique and impressive design, innovative and intense presence of art.
