For this Dupont Circle Medical Center, the client requested a peaceful environment that would diminish the stress patients feel when going to the doctor. The personal attention devoted to treating each patient is reflected in the state-of-the-art equipment, finishes and detailing. Glass partitions and light-filtering shading maximize natural light. Furnishings were selected for their simplicity and function. From the moment a patient walks into the space they are immersed in a calming environment of care and comfort. The project won a National healthcare Environment Award in the Fall of 2005, and was featured in CONTRACT magazine in October 2005.
