Two new rehabilitation hospitals were
designed as part of the first phase of a 212 acre Master Plan
developed by RBB.
The Jacquelin Perry Institute (shown left) is a 234,000
SF, 3-story spinal injury rehabilitation facility with
extensive research laboratories on the basement level. The
building was designed to reflect historic buildings on the
campus and to evoke the architectural tradition of Rancho
Los Amigos, including Spanish arches and a bell
tower. The exterior features reflective green glass,
and precast panels were utilized for ease of
maintenance.
A
metal trellis and covered walkway connects the Perry
Institute to “Building B,” the second rehabilitation
facility, and will be a continuing design element
throughout the campus. Rooftop gardens as well as
interior and exterior courtyard spaces also highlight the
surrounding area.
