The new Choctaw Nation Regional Medical Clinic in Durant, Okla., was designed with special brick and tribal art work, according to an article on the Medical Design & Construction website.
Much of the southern exterior is covered with “Choctaw Blend” brick, which was created for the Choctaw Nation.
Inside, artwork by Choctow artists lines the interior walls. The main lobby on the east side of the facility has walls with glass to the ceiling, the article said.
Glass panels used in the lobby contain electric sensors that tint according to the amount of sunlight hitting them.
