In 2006, Stanford Hospital & Clinics required a new,
state-of-the art facility that would replace existing clinical
functions while maintaining and enhancing connections
to its preexisting buildings Rafael Viñoly Architects was
selected for its unique approach to healthcare design:
rather than creating the typical base-and-tower hospital

building, the firm proposed a modular plan that can be
easily adapted for a variety of uses, thus allowing both
for incremental expansion of the hospital building and a
horizontal development strategy that complements the
low-rise campus context of Stanford University and its
Medical Center.
