The reimagined entryway and lobby of Baylor Scott & White Irving Medical Center (BSWI) redefine the patient experience through a design that prioritizes healing, clarity, and connection to the environment. Anchored by a striking geometric landmark, The Point, the project transforms the medical campus entry into a welcoming and inspiring space.

The renovation focuses on creating a patient-centered atmosphere, achieved through intuitive wayfinding and expansive floor-to-ceiling windows that bathe the lobby in natural light. The Point, a bold architectural gesture, serves as a visual anchor, establishing a memorable and iconic entry to the campus. Its clean, geometric form sets the tone for a modern, healing-focused environment.

• Dynamic Interior Space: Inside The Point, a gracefully curved wooden mezzanine wraps the lobby’s perimeter, seamlessly connecting to a prominent staircase near the entrance. This minimalist design emphasizes the interplay of structure and light, allowing the architectural elements to shine.
• Natural Light Integration: Floor-to-ceiling glazing floods the space with daylight, enhancing the lobby’s serene ambiance and fostering a restorative environment for patients, staff, and visitors.
• Simplified Elegance: The restrained material palette and clean geometric forms create a timeless aesthetic, where the articulation of structure and glazing takes center stage, promoting a sense of calm and clarity.
