The SOM-designed Mount Sinai Hess Center for Science and Medicine houses both medical research and outpatient care; it features collaborative lounges where researchers can informally collaborate, as well as a four-story atrium where they intermix with the patients whose lives they impact—a “subliminal” reminder of their work’s importance, notes SOM design partner Mustafa K. Abadan.
