Metal panels help stru new oncology facility

摘要

The new Highlands Oncology Group Cancer Treatment Center in Rogers, Ark., provides a comprehensive approach to cancer treatment in a state-of-the-art facility. The physician owners insisted that the center be designed to create a pleasant, welcoming environment for patients. According to Robert Kelly, president. Core Architects, Rogers: "Before we got involved, the owners had originally involved a design-build firm that couldn't bring the project in on budget. Working closely with Crossland Construction Co., [the general contractor], we redesigned the project and not only brought it in 'on the money' but also gave the owners more square footage. The Citadel cladding, along with other elements, helped do that."
