COMMUNITY

ONE STOP SERVICE...

Multi-specialty group practice is composed of physicians from a wide range of specialties. Through collaboration among these specialists, patients receive comprehensive medical treatment that is efficient and thorough.

Knowledge comes from questioning the status, discovering more about various diseases and unifying that knowledge together.

Multi-specialty group practice promotes an environment that envourages and enhaces communications, collaboration, and a peer review. Also, it will be able to offer “One-stop service� and save patients time by scheduling appointments with several doctors on the same day at one location.

NEEDS ANALYS

Health Science Center is far away from the campus of Texas A&M University. The distance is 4.3 miles. It takes 12 minitues to access the Center from Campus

MASTER PLAN T

he most important point is to relate Satellite Clinic Center to surrounding envrionment. As mentioned earlier, the project focuses on connection between White River Park and Public Health Building in Texas A&M University campus, landscape has influence on relationships with nature through passive interaction and physically active experience.

Students and faculties take nature views and anture access smoothly.

They also enjoy diverse activities in observation platform, active plaza,

walkway, and gardens.

Especially, walkway leads to access to White River Park and the second floor of building that includes public community spaces.

Therefore, these various factors and surrounding envrionment is combined with the building that creates dynamic experience and interaction with the natural envrionment and public spaces.

MASTER PLAN SECTION The project is composed of diagnostic and tratment facilities, gardens, research laboratories and administrative services, a walkway, and plazas.

Especially, these programs interlinked to promote accesObservation Platform

unlight is a very im portant part of daily lives in clinic centers. It makes patients healthy by supporting them with vitamin D, it warms them up and it effects their mood by making them happy and more positive.

Therefore, getting natural light into Satellite Clinic Center is desirable for pateints.

62

In this context, the corridor of Satellite Clinic Center is very important to take natural light. The corridors have windows and skylight.

Natural light from the skylights and from the windows of corridor strengthen and comfort the healthcare workers and usres of the center.

Installing a larger window can make interior spaces get more natural daylight.

Also, Installing skylights will bring in tremendous more natural light to interior spaces.

The corridors are main circulation and join all the services. Therefore, these corridors are always marked by the entry of natural light.

COURTYARD

C

ourtyard is one of the most important factors in the project. Courtyard is located in the center of the building.

Through these courtyards, students, faculties, researchers, and patients will be able to experience nature, and they can relax and feel fresh atmosphere.

Center courtyards take three functions in the project.

First, patients, students, and faculties experience nature of courtyard.

Second, patients can relax and improve healing. Also, students and faculties can feel fresh air and improve workability.

Third, the couryard can provide natural lighting. Also, it can have public character.

Therefore, Green spaces of courtyards will provide calming views and ample daylight for building users. It is so helpful to refresh their atmosphere.

Also, in the courtyard, patients can enjoy nature and students can play more safely.
