2. Ambulatory Surgery Center/
Medical Office Building (40,000 SF)
Kernersville, NC
The MedCenter represents the first move for the
health system to implement their ambulatory
care strategy. The facility is designed to create
a strong presence in the outer reaches of their
service area, with patient convenience and
quality clearly evident in the branding. A distinct
tower element located at the main entrance of
the facility was designed to develop an identifiable
image for health system. Exterior walls using
the same brick materials incorporated at the
main hospital provide an additional aesthetic
link to the main campus. Extensive use of glass
characterizes the modern, state-of-the-art care
that is provided within while providing patients
and staff the ability to enjoy views of nature.
The outpatient facility and site were master
planned to accommodate an additional 40,000
square feet of expansion along with another
separate building of 23,000 square feet.
As Project Coordinator, I led the design
development and construction documents for
facility, and further led the interior architecture
design of the "branding" tower. Key role included
facade detailing of masonry and glazing systems.

designed in likeness to tower elements and
entrances at other health system facilities to
enhance familiarity and develop an identifiable
image for health system. The Facility includes
both ambulatory care center and medical offices
including a 24-hour emergency department.
The site was master planned to accommodate
up to 150,000 square feet with expansion options
studied for potential hospital, surgery center and
cancer center.

and design development documents for facility,
and further led the interior architecture design
of the main entrance lobby. Key role included
detailing of facade systems - curtainwall, high

At the request of hospital administration and after
initial analysis, there was a commission for a
master plan and design of two medical office
