Located in a converted historic warehouse, the 37,000 square-foot outpatient facility uses the building's distinctive 120 foot-long skylights to incorporate natural light into the public and patient care areas. The design incorporates a series of atriums, waiting areas, and a reception room along
a spacious corridor.

The landscape concept features bamboo and birch "groves." Working closely with LIJH's medical staff and Infection Control Director, staggered bands of bamboo create lush, serene settings for relaxing and quiet conversation. The bamboo trees provide a sense of privacy from the main public corridor while allowing staff to monitor the various seating areas. Outside, birch trees strategically screen nearby traffic, provide filtered sunlight, and frame views of the surrounding landscape.
