Beaufort Memorial Lady’s Island Internal Medicine

BEAUFORT MEMORIAL LADY’S ISLAND INTERNAL MEDICINE
Lady’s Island, South Carolina

PROJECT NARRATIVE

The new medical office building is one story and 10,000 sf, serving patients on Lady’s Island and the Sea Islands. The building includes two main areas. An Administrative area is located along Sea Island Parkway with main facility entry and waiting rooms. The Administrative area is connected to the Clinical area containing patient examination rooms, offices, and provider support spaces. The Clinical area follows the side property lines and extends to the middle of the existing site. Access into the building is gained from both the front by pedestrians and the side by those traveling to the facility by car.

The facility’s use and design reinforces Village Center zoning district on Lady’s Island. This district is noted as providing a hub for commercial and institutional activities, balancing vehicular access and pedestrian circulation. This project further encourages a pedestrian-friendly environment and an appropriately scaled building. The front façade of the building includes the main building with porches, a covered trellis, and open air pavilion. The porches and outdoor spaces encourage visitor use with low seating walls and benches, forming a visitor courtyard adjacent to the indoor waiting areas. Large roof overhangs supported by a bracket system at porches and the open air pavilion expand its use and presence to Sea Island Parkway.
