Ballinger | Inova Health Center – Oakville

Architecture for Health Showcase

IGNORE THIS TITLE

Our Project

 

Characterized by a sculptural, humanistic design, Inova Health Center – Oakville brings outpatient and emergency care to Alexandria, Virginia’s Oakville Triangle. Designed by Ballinger and Ennead Architects, it is the first of a multi-campus initiative to establish a new physical identity, operational standard and patient experience for Inova.

The design focuses on occupant wellness with an emphasis on sustainable design principles. The facility’s exterior showcases a double glass facade and vertical fin shading system, enhancing aesthetics, energy efficiency and solar performance. These elements balance access to views with privacy where needed. The high-performance rain screen facade and a green roof with a landscaped outdoor terrace further connect patients and team members with the healing power of nature.
