TriStar Centennial Garden Court Reopens
TriStar Centennial Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee had its garden court refreshed. Located in the footprint of the medical center, updates include a redesigned information kiosk, modern tables and chairs, the addition of three video screens, new flooring and lighting and an entire array of new plants, flowers and trees. The architect of the original design, ESa, was tasked with the update.
Dick Miller, Chairman Emeritus of ESa, designed the original space and recently viewed the updates with project principal, Randel Forkum and senior design manager Sherry Mendel.
Mendel shared that as a designer, the biggest challenge was changing the existing space enough to bring it into current times while still holding true to the concepts and elements that have been a sense of comfort and familiarity for users through the years. In addition to an updated information area, flooring and technology, the decades-old palms and over-sized plantings were replaced with greenery more in line with the scale of the space. However, the space continues to be a wayfinding tool with access to all outpatient and public areas, as well as a respite for clients, staff and guests.
