East Texas Medical Center Hospital Expansion/Renovation

The expansion to ETMC's flagship trauma upgrades patient services while incorporating lighting systems that improve access and way finding-critical issues for emergency patients. The addition's curved facade showcases ETMC's signature trauma services. Layers of metal halide lighting accentuate the facade's 3-dimensional details. Indirect lighting along the emergency drive allows patients to be triaged directly from their vehicles. The lighting makes the drive feel like an extension of the well-kept hospital interior. The lighting design succeeds by highlighting the facility's physical attributes while projecting a positive image of ETMC as a center for exceptional healthcare service.
