Project Overview:
The Health Sciences Education Building (HSEB) fosters future healthcare professionals by breaking down traditionally siloed healthcare education and embracing a multidisciplinary approach. The building promotes a “Culture of Care,” including mass timber hybrid structure to reduce carbon and occupant stress levels, a textural and reflective building skin designed at a human scale, lush and dappled light-filled outdoor moments to promote connection with nature, informal gathering spaces of various scales and character to create a sense of inclusion and belonging, and sustainable systems and finishes to ensure occupant health and wellness.
