At Kaiser Permanente’s Antelope Valley Medical Offices, a 350-foot wall’s undulating pattern is designed to slow down wind speeds as they reach campus and to shield patients and visitors from the gusts that can reach 90 miles per hour, according to the "Last Detail" feature on the Health Facilities Management website.
The façade tilts out 10 degrees to offset glare, but each pane of glass is actually rectangular. The façade also provides views of the surrounding mountains and desert from the waiting rooms.
Also, themes of butterflies and poppies are found in design and landscaping elements thoughout the design.
