The focal point of the Rush University Medical Center's Edward A. Brennan Entry Pavilion is a three-story, open-air terrarium, which introduces an exterior landscaped space into the interior without introducing air contamination issues, according to the "Last Detail" feature on the Health Facilities Management website.
Laminated low-iron glass is curved to fit a freestanding steel pipe frame that spans 50 feet through an aperture in the roof, which mirrors skylights in the lobby, the article said. The terrarium houses ferns, mosses, spring bulbs and deciduous trees.
