Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Expansion
SIZE
1,000,000 +
The Children’s Hospital of
Philadelphia facilities expansion includes 150 new inpatient beds, a new
emergency department, and diagnostic and treatment facilities.
KPF evaluated constrained
urban site and developed alternative ways to add space. The solution would
totally envelop the initial structure and alter all entries. In reconfiguring the site, drop-off and
parking were clarified and emergency traffic was separated from other traffic
flow.
Massing components form a
coherent whole, providing unity and balance. The colored glass artwall
expresses the sophisticated yet playful aesthetic. From the patient rooms, the
artwall animates views with a kaleidoscope of colored light as the day
progresses.
