The Redlands Medical Office Building was designed as the first implemented phase of a medical master plan that included a 3-tower hospital, medical office buildings, and parking structures on an 11-acre site in the Inland Empire. This 120,000 SF building includes Internal Medicine, Family Practice, OB/Gyn, Pediatrics, Pharmacy departments, a full imaging suite, Clinical Laboratory, an Optometry, Ophthalmology and Vision Essentials retail center, and a publicly used conference center.

at-a-glanceThe Redlands Medical Office Building is the first phase of the development of a new campus and needed to establish an overall framework for future planning.
The building is sited to allow for a master plan build out including a three tower Hospital, two additional Medical Office Buildings and several parking garages.
The building finishes were selected to reflect the rich colors of the Inland Empire’s rock formations and desert vegetation.
The building entry and conference center were sculpted to create a distinctive form identifiable to the local community.
The openings have been specifically designed to provide protection from the harsh climatic conditions in the Inland Empire. All storm drainage was collected in surface retention basins; plant material was selected to minimize irrigation needs while enhancing the rich mountainous desert surroundings.
