St. Mary’s Healthcare System, Athens GA

The St. Mary’s Heart Vascular Center project introduces advanced technologies, including 4D CT and Bi-Plane imaging equipment, to support the growing Interventional Radiology service. Additionally, a new Electrophysiology (EP) Lab will expand the hospital’s existing cardiology service line, enhancing its ability to deliver comprehensive heart care.

The design includes a new check-in and waiting area with a centralized control station, along with thoughtfully planned Prep and Recovery rooms. These spaces are designed to provide comfort and privacy for both patients and their families, allowing loved ones to remain nearby during procedures.

All services are consolidated onto a single floor to improve patient safety, optimize staff collaboration, and streamline the overall care experience. The sophisticated exterior and interior design introduces a refined material palette and visual language that reinforces the Heart & Vascular Center’s new identity—one that reflects the excellence of the care delivered within.
