Valley Behavioral Hospital

In this conversion, patient safety was our top design priority and became especially important when considering the existence of large amounts of glass in the existing building. Our design called for the replacement of all inpatient room windows with laminated glass windows and application of 3M safety film on other exterior windows to mitigate this risk.

Project Details

TESSERE designed this conversion and renovation of a two-story, 62,000-square-foot nursing home into a behavioral health hospital. The project also included new construction of a single-story, 7,000-square-foot outpatient building in Phoenix, Arizona. Social spaces, both interior and exterior, were also designed.
