About the Project

Project Description

SickKids' Project Horizon, the Patient Support Center, stands as a beacon of transformative design. Spanning an impressive 427,290 square feet, this 22-storey architectural marvel nestled within The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) campus embodies a fusion of functionality and innovation. Inside, staff and guests are greeted by cutting-edge features meticulously tailored to elevate pediatric care. From state-of-the-art training rooms to a pioneering simulation center, every detail is meticulously curated to create an environment that inspires excellence. Central to the projects design is the integration of the SickKids Learning Institute, providing a nurturing environment for over 1,000 trainees, students, and learners annually. Within this institute lies a state-of-the-art Simulation Centre, fostering hands-on learning in a vibrant, contemporary setting tailored to professionals, management, and support staff. The center's design prioritizes collaboration and inclusivity, with a variety of shared spaces accessible to all staff across the campus. This commitment to fostering community underscores the center's role not only as a physical structure but as a catalyst for innovation and unity. The play on material finishes and dicrotic glazing allowed for lighting effects to transpire and change as you transition through the lobby. SickKids' Project Horizon exemplifies the pinnacle of design excellence, setting a new standard for healthcare facilities worldwide and leaving an indelible mark on the landscape of pediatric care.
