Wheaton Eye Clinic
Wheaton Eye Clinic is a new 23,500 s.f.
outpatient medical services complex on a
wooded, L-shaped site. FAL designed the
center to create a "park within a park" by
repeating extensive exterior landscaping within
a generous interior courtyard. All public
spaces and many treatment areas face both
the courtyard and the grounds. Natural light
was subdued or eliminated in certain areas
to protect patients from light sensitivity.
The building's materials palette reflects the
environment and this scheme is carried
through into the interior. FAL designed all
interiors, furnishings and custom fixtures
including a children's center in the waiting area.
