UCSF Health Helen Diller Hospital
Founded in 1891 with the establishment of the Colleges of Dentistry, Medicine, and Pharmacy nestled into the landscape of Mount Sutro, UCSF’s Parnassus Campus benefits from a dramatic location adjacent to nature, overlooking the surrounding city and Golden Gate Park below. The architecture of the new UCSF Health Helen Diller Hospital will integrate the campus and hospital into the landscape of Mount Sutro and the fabric of the city around it. Additionally, the new building will promote connectivity within the campus by stitching together the existing Moffitt and Long buildings to form one hospital, facilitating a seamless experience for patients, visitors, and staff and a holistic healing environment for all. The Street, the Terrace and the Mountain The three distinct horizontal layers of the building correspond to different programmatic functions within the hospital. This specific massing establishes unique relationships with the surrounding natural and urban context. The base, containing many of the most critical clinical functions, is shaped to create a welcoming entry and human-scaled experience for pedestrians along Parnassus Avenue.
