The board of directors at Augusta University Health has chosen the team of SmithGroup and TVS as the architects for the Columbia County hospital in Augusta, Georgia. AU Health is Georgia’s only public academic health center and is the primary teaching affiliate of the Medical College of Georgia.
The integrated team of SmithGroup and TVS will develop an innovative healing environment that exemplifies the patient- and family centered care provided by Augusta University Health for the new greenfield hospital facility, medical office building and central utility plant. Together the team will provide integrated medical planning, architecture, interior architecture, urban design, landscape architecture and MEP engineering.
The Columbia County hospital is expected to open to the community in 2025. Schematic design for the hospital begins immediately.
