Regional Medical Center - Manchester, IA

Invision Architecture designed the Regional Medical Center - Manchester, which is a major 2-story addition to an existing hospital anchored by a new patient bed unit and specialty clinic.

The design includes 20 new inpatient beds, including a 4-bed critical care unit, all accomplished while the hospital continued to operate and provide full services for the local community. 

The color and materials used for the exterior design are carried into the interior and reflect the warm neutral colors found within the neighboring rural landscape. The new front entry of the hospital is accented by zinc panels and Terra5 Earth Red terracotta rainscreen cladding which symbolizes the new connection between the hospital and the community. As part of the sustainable approach to the design, renewable natural materials such as the double flat-lock zinc and the Cladding Corp's clay terracotta panels were utilized.
