Integra Hospital Plano
Plano, Texas
Client: Integra Hospital Management
Originally built as a call center, the building was repurposed into a 73-bed rehabilitation hospital.
The Halff interior design team recaptured the 'hospitable' part of 'hospital', by introducing residential concepts in the patient rooms and in all the 'living' areas. All patient rooms are private with attached en-suite bath, that has the look and feel of a hotel suite rather than a hospital room. Each patient room has wood-like plank flooring and handsome wood grain custom cabinetry designed with Silestone counter tops. The spa-like private bathrooms are naturally beautiful with custom tile and accessories for safety and accessibility.
The rotunda waiting area, located directly off the hospital entrance, is open and light with its impressive, 18-foot lighted dome and granite counter tops. Clad in wood panels, the rotunda serves as the facility's core hinge and provides navigational tools to each destination. The wood panels wrap through the main east/west public corridor leading visitors to an upscale dining facility and one of the three, large exterior landscaped courtyards. Color schemes play off nature's palette and bring the outside in. Color and spatial landmarking guide visitors through the nearly 103,000 square foot space.
