Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, Armellino Center for Excellence for Williams Syndrome

The new Armellino Center of Excellence for Williams Syndrome at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania provides a dedicated environment for advancing research and specialized care for children and adults with Williams Syndrome. Designed for collaborative use by teams from Penn Medicine and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, the center includes exam and consultation rooms, a patient lounge, a sensory room, and advanced technology supporting patient care and research.

Extensive preconstruction and vendor coordination ensured the specialized space met the needs of its users, while close collaboration with the design team and hospital stakeholders streamlined decision-making throughout the project. Located along a busy hospital corridor surrounded by sensitive clinical areas, our team carefully scheduled disruptive work during off-hours to minimize noise and vibration while maintaining ongoing hospital operations.
