Project: To take an existing space and
redesign into something new.
2. Adolescent medicine focuses on ages 12 -21, when adolescents may feel out of place in an
pediatricians office
where the furniture and exams rooms are geared towards smaller children and the parent is present
during an exam. During that age they may not want to discuss certain things in front of the parent.
The adolescent center focus on creating a space/doctor office where an adolescent can go and not
feel out of place, an age appropriate space where they can feel comfortable discussing issues with
a doctor or nurse without the parent present.
Avant Adolescent Medical Center was created by four pediatricians. The center’s office visit will
consist of the patient, doctor/nurse only. The parent will be brought in only if there are concerns.
The center space will consist of counseling, social work, classrooms, pharmacy, and soda shop.
The existing space has two floors and 11,962 square feet.
