Project Challenges

The project involved modernizing 7,000 square feet of active healthcare space, requiring meticulous planning to maintain functionality across multiple floors of a busy hospital.

The incorporation of efficient wayfinding and sustainable, energy-efficient systems earned the project an Exceptional Rating from the owner.
