Location: Goldsboro, North Carolina

This project is set in the heart of the rural coastal plains of eastern North Carolina. The treatment of patients focuses on therapy that enables them to recognize and cope with a routine of daily life. A challenge arises when trying to create routines that mimic common daily activities like commuting to work or visiting a park, when considering patients are confined to one building 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The design of the New Cherry Hospital addresses this by accentuating transitions between programmatic components through the use of material, scale, daylight, and modulation of spatial conditions.
