SUMMIT HILLS
PATRICK WINSTON | GRADUATE ARCH STUDIO | SPRING 2021
Summit Hills explores the role of architecture in improving the mental health and wellbeing
of the community in Spokane, Washington. This large-scale urban mixeduse
building is approximately 643,534 ft 2 and provides many unique services to
the community. The overall scope consists of multi-generational housing, a wellness
center, and a center for ecology and arts. This project involved adaptive architecture
techniques to assist in creating large social gathering spaces for comfort, health,
and flexibility. The site incorporates many positive features such as an existing trail,
topographic context, and available scenery. Therefore, the goal of the design for
Summit Hills is to increase community interaction through healthy and flexible green
environments.
