Repurposing a high-rise office tower into a high-tech health center that brings New Yorkersconvenient access to NYU Langone care and wellness.Each floor is organized with awood wall; the geometry inspired by the urban views.
Serenity within each clinical area belies the dense, multi-specialty medical practices thatare in this 25-floor, 221,000 square foot academic medical center outpatient facility.
The refurbishment of a law firm’s former high rise offices into a high-tech center that brings New Yorkers convenient access to health and wellness is the driver for this project. The design interprets NYU Langone’s brand of timeless modernism, along with a superior experience for sophisticated clientele, and creates an environment that draws inspiration from and meaningfully connects to its surrounds of romanticized urban canyons.
From sidewalk to treatment spaces, a simple palette of natural materials are utilized to create consistency and orientation, support wayfinding and provide visual richness throughout. Each floor is organized with a wood wall; the geometry inspired by the urban views, and weaves connectivity to daylight and urban views. The modernism of the original tower is honored and woven into the updated experience.
