The building’s organization wraps the diverse medical components (diagnostics, surgery, emergency) around a central treatment area while reacting to the unique geometry and assets of the site. The veterinary hospital contains two parallel programs: an overnight/weekend emergency care veterinary facility and a specialist practice that accepts referrals from conventional veterinary practices in the surrounding region. The design process focused on linking the intensely choreographed relationships of the practice’s program to the opportunities found on the site. This project was completed with responsibility to a tight budget, an aggressive construction schedule, and the surrounding environment.
