Twinsburg Family Health Center contains medical clinics, a rehab gym, pharmacy, offices, a community room, and caf茅. The medical clinics are designed with an “on-stage/off-stage” paradigm that separates public and staff/medical/service activities, a pattern which is used throughout the facility. The exam room standards developed for this project are flexible and adaptable allowing for occupancy by various medical specialties. Ambulatory surgery, imaging, and the emergency department are in the two-story masonry-clad ambulatory surgery center; the institutional occupancy allows for a future phase two expansion into an acute care hospital.
Carefully contrasted in scale, materiality, program function, and code occupancy classification, the two rectangular volumes read as one harmonious care facility. Twinsburg Family Health and Surgery Center was the first LEED Gold clinical facility in the portfolio of the Cleveland Clinic, in part because of its response to the environmentally sensitive suburban site, which includes wetlands and rock outcroppings.
