With this project, the VA sought to raise design standards to provide a less institutional feeling clinic experience. Designers selected a warm palette to promote a welcoming environment. Durable, solid surfaces are easy to clean and maintain, while the layout and furnishings address HIPAA concerns, accounting for privacy and security with solutions such as locking custom casework.

DESIGN DRIVERS

Mackenzie collaborated closely with the client to work within the framework of an existing program to fit all desired elements into the available space.
Program elements include standard exam rooms, an eye clinic, an audiology booth, an X-ray room, a phlebotomy lab including an adjacent toilet room with pass-through, reception areas, nurses stations, offices, and break rooms.
Services offered include primary care, mental health treatment, and the compensation and pension department.
