TYPE: Commercial - Healthcare

AREA: 3,267 sq. ft.

LOCATION: Baltimore, Maryland

SKILLS EMPLOYED: Space Planning, Revit, Enscape, Photoshop

Situated in the heart of Baltimore, Maryland, Lumicove Wellness Clinic stands as a beacon of innovative and holistic healthcare. Specializing in primary care and addressing behavioral health issues for individuals from birth to age eighteen, the clinic prioritizes a welcoming and child-friendly environment. Recognizing the importance of adapting to the unique characteristics of this urban and culturally rich city and catering to the evolving dynamics of healthcare, Lumicove Wellness Clinic embraces telehealth solutions as a bridge between traditional in-person care and the increasing demand for remote medical services. This approach ensures accessibility and convenience for residents, aligning seamlessly with Lumicove’s overarching goal of fostering family engagement and promoting holistic healing in the dynamic Baltimore communities it serves.

CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT

The design concept for Lumicove Wellness embodies the idea of the site’s protective spirit, ‘Genius Loci,’ breathing life into the space. This spirit guides the clinic and plays a vital role in nurturing and healing both patients and their families. Drawing inspiration from Baltimore’s Inner Harbor, the genius loci of the clinic pays tribute to this coastal landscape by allowing it to shape the design.

The presence of water within the space extends beyond aesthetics; it acts as a conduit for healing, engagement, and tranquility. The flow of water serves as a therapeutic agent throughout the design, instilling a sense of calm and offering positive distractions for the patients. The Inner Harbor lighthouse acts as a guiding light for the design, reinforcing the clinic’s role as a safe haven for healing. Curvilinear elements reminiscent of a lighthouse painted by the colors of the Inner Harbor at sunset will influence the design. The Clinic fosters a connection with patients’ everyday lives and immerses them in the mindset of strolling along the harbor.

The clinic’s design embraces the protective spirit of the building alongside the natural beauty of the Inner Harbor, infusing the space with the soothing and revitalizing influences of water, creating an environment where healing is not just a process but a holistic journey.

SPACE PLANNING

The design respects each stakeholder by strategically zoning the floor plan. The patient zone, in the spacious front, caters to multi-person families, ensuring privacy by placing it on the window-less back wall for easy provider access. The provider zone, separated for security and as a respite area, completes the thoughtful layout.

In the initial space planning, the focus was on ensuring a positive experience for all stakeholders. Emphasizing the importance of the south wall, it was divided equally between patients and providers due to its status as the sole source of natural lighting.

Patient zones are placed on the windowless side of the building to create a feeling of privacy.

Provider zone is separate from patient zones to provide security as well as a place to unwind.

The waiting area acts as a buffer for the exam rooms providing acoustical privacy and safety for staff.

CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT

Lextant’s passion for understanding how the work they do sends rippled effects into the world inspired the design concept which is the ripple effect.

To achieve this, a flexible workplace will be vital, options for quiet and collaborative spaces to accommodate each employees’ unique needs. The transitions between the different workstations will be seamless creating a feeling of harmony dissolving any barriers disconnecting employees.
