We’re excited to see Jefferson Health’s Honickman Center being featured in Healthcare Design Magazine! Heintges is proud to have served as primary enclosure consultant on this transformative multispecialty outpatient center during all phases of design and construction. Inspired by Philadelphia’s rich textile production history, Ennead Architects' design is achieved with concave curved insulating glass units fabricated using state of the art glass bending techniques. The high-performance low-e coating and use of custom pattern ceramic fritted glass also contribute to the sustainability goals of this LEED Gold certified building. Congratulations to our friends and colleagues at Ennead Architects, National Real Estate Development, LLC, and the Jefferson Health project team!
Jefferson Health's Honickman Center has been featured in Healthcare Design Magazine. The article discusses how the #LEED Gold-certified ambulatory #healthcare center is designed to integrate with the community it serves. “We see healthcare facilities as trusted civic institutions, not unlike libraries or museums,” says Thomas Wong, partner at Ennead Architects. “Healthcare projects must participate in the city, both in the skyline and at the street level and everything in between, to welcome and engage the community by providing an elevated experience that enhances the delivery of care.” “We wanted to create a design with a highly tactile quality that feels soft, welcoming, and caring,” Jarrett Pelletier, Ennead Principal says. “For example, the elevator cores are clad in etched glass that is grazed with soft light.” Similarly, extruded metal walls and sculpted bamboo pods in the patient lounge on the second floor provide more of that “tactile quality with a handmade touch.” Read the full article at the link below. https://lnkd.in/eYEdGYar To hear from Jefferson Health about the impact the Honickman Center has had on the community and day-to-day practice, watch the interview with Dr. Catriona Harrop, MD, SFHM, FACP, associate chief physician executive at Jefferson Health, below.
