Event
Tour of Kaiser Permanente Downtown Commons Medical Office Building
The design team took the challenge of a dated office building with a forbidding façade, and imagined a welcoming and vibrant space for healthcare at the heart of Sacramentos revitalized downtown core. Members and staff enjoy access to natural light, views of nature, the historic Railyards and future Kaiser Permanente Railyards Hospital, as well as distant views of the rivers and Central Valley. No matter the clinic visited, the central courtyard is a powerful and beautiful means of internal orientation. The fundamental goal is to create a stress-free visitor experience similar to a hotel lobby, an art gallery, a spa, and a public garden, where sculptural architectural features, art, and nature are the main wayfinding elements. Supporting goals were to connect the project to the surrounding community; create iconic welcoming architecture, and bring life to downtown Sacramento, especially at the street and pedestrian level.
