San Marcos, TX

WHEN

Spring 2025

DESIGN CONCEPT: Inspired by the fluid movement of the San Marcos river, "Currents" serves to transform this new Westlake Dermatology San Marcos location into a serene and restorative environment. To mirror the ebb and flow of the river, the corridors widen and narrow to accommodate the flow of patrons, creating an intuitive space that enhances circulation. Just as the river carves through San Marcos’s landscape, the design will incorporate distinct zones, including land, water, and life. The land-zone represents stability and will be utilized in the examination rooms and MOHs area to ground patients, offering warm, earthy tones and natural textures. The water-zone reflects the fluidity of the space with soft curves, vivid blues, and reflective surfaces. This area will include the adult waiting spaces and the corridors as patrons move through the clinic. The pediatric areas will be the earth-zone, inspired by the Texas wild rice, with a tactile environment that incorporates organic forms, textures, and vivid greens to create a calming pre and post-treatment area for younger patients. “Currents” aims to create an immersive and flowing medical environment that mirrors the restorative powers of water while mimicking the natural environment.
