ANACAPA WELLNESS

Ventura, California

Adaptive reuse of an existing, 1950s retail building across from the hospital in Ventura, California to create a new medical center, MOB.  As design architect, we are currently collaborating with our client, 6 surgeons, to maximize the potential of the preexisting structure. We propose for the front facade a vertical garden with a healing, double height atrium beyond. The ascending terra cotta planters create a buffer of microclimatic plants at the busy street of Loma Vista. We are the design architect working with onyx creative–architect of record.

New double height atrium draws in Northern light and a cascade of greenery.
Atrium opens up the lobby space and views for doctors and patients above.
