PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Background

Lone Star College’s Kingwood Campus, renowned for its commitment to preserving the natural beauty of Kingwood’s forested setting, embarked on an ambitious endeavor with the establishment of the LSC Health Professions Center. This 48,000 SF facility stands as a hub for students pursuing careers across various healthcare industries.

Approach

AUTOARCH’s vision for the Health Professions Center combined functionality, modern aesthetics, and a deep respect for the environment. The building houses a diverse range of medical spaces tailored for programs in dental assisting, dental hygiene, nursing, occupational therapy assistance, and respiratory care. Among the facility’s standout features are the fully operational dental suite with 24 chairs, Radiology Learning Suite, Life Skills Suite, Skills Labs, Nursing Labs, Classrooms, a Rehab Gym, and multiple collaborative areas and admin spaces. The building’s design and material choices seamlessly integrate with the Kingwood Campus’ aesthetic, prioritizing minimal disruption to its natural surroundings and preserving its iconic trees.

Result

The Health Professions Center has since established itself as a state-of-the-art healthcare educational facility on the Kingwood Campus. It offers a cutting-edge learning environment for its students while standing as a testament to architectural design that harmonizes with its natural setting.
