Project Details
For this new, state-of-the-art 7,500 SF ambulatory eye surgery center, the doctors requested that the building design, aesthetics, and
interior views maximize the beautiful wooded site they had selected. To achieve this integration, we chose natural-looking materials
such as the stone wall on the exterior of the building that was inspired by the rocks in the nearby woods. The stone wall was continued
through to the interior to keep the flow of serenity that nature and natural elements provide. Bringing the woods inside with wood-like
elements as well as colors of browns, neutrals, and blues reinforce the calming environment for the patients and staff. An abundance
of windows increases the connection to the woods. Windows were strategically placed in the PACU waiting room and the restricted
corridor. Patients and their guests enjoy the same natural aesthetics throughout the building as they have their procedure completed.
This building contains 2 operating rooms, 1 procedure room, and 7 patient care stations in a combined pre-op/post-op suite. There is a
central nurse station for easy monitoring of all patient care stations. Each of the pre-op/post-op bays is equipped with medical gases
in the same locations for maximum flexibility of patient placement. After recovery, patients exit through a dedicated departure door
under a covered canopy that protects them from the weather while getting into their car.
