It would have to serve not only as a medical facility, but also as a catalyst for cohesion and future growth in the neighborhood.  Image Courtesy © Jonathan Hillyer

The co-location of these functions led the design team to consider the communal folk art of quilting, and its social role in African-American communities like Adamsville. Inspiration also came from the constructed paintings of contemporary Atlanta artist Radcliffe Bailey, who pieces together found objects, archival photographs and historic imagery with jazz-like effects.

It required coordinating the participation of multiple stakeholders including the City of Atlanta and Fulton County governments, the contracting firm Whiting-Turner, Fulton County Board of Commissioners Vice Chair Emma Darnell, the Fulton County Office of Cultural Affairs, the staff of West End Medical Center and many residents of the Adamsville neighborhood.
