Amherst, MA – Atkinson Family Practice, Kuhn Riddle Architects, and Wright Builders broke ground for the medical group’s new sustainable, solar-powered offices on April 25th.
High on the facility’s requirements list was that it be a sustainable, solar-powered environment filled with natural light and healthy air for patients and staff.
Kuhn Riddle Architects designed the new 13,513sf building using sustainable components and building practices such as double wall construction, triple glazed windows, and VRV system heat pumps with energy recovery ventilators.
Architect Ann Marshall put together a visionary facility now slated for construction. Wright Builders of Northampton joined the team to provide estimating, value engineering and construction management.
Due for completion in November, the new facility will have ample room for medical-behavioral integrated family-centered care.
Psychologists Susan Molano and Chaia Wolf will partner with the medical team to provide whole person care to patients of all ages, from newborn to elderly in this family practice.
