DRAW Collective

Maintaining a comfortable, modern, and safe patient environment is a top priority for Allegheny Health Network (AHN). That’s why DRAW Collective worked with AHN on the Forbes Hospital Professional Office Building (POB) #2 to renovate its OB/GYN suite. Because it’s the busiest suite within the POB, it was imperative for DRAW and the construction team to collaborate efficiently and maintain organized, safe operations throughout phased construction. This suite features an open and welcoming waiting room with new visitor check-in and check-out stations. Refreshed private exam rooms with new casework enhance the patient’s experience, while a modified layout improves the staff’s overall workflow and makes better use of available space.

DRAW Collective partnered with Indiana Area School District to renovate their high school classrooms, including science labs and early childhood education spaces. The district’s early childhood education program offers students hands-on experience through a daytime childcare program. Creating a safe and welcoming space for the students and children was crucial to these renovations. Bright colors and cozy learning spaces enhance the experiences of students, teachers, and children.

Mindy Golvash always got excited to tell her new third-graders that their Elroy Elementary classroom is the same space where she learned fractions and vocabulary as a fourth-grader.

The kids “love to know,” she said.

Golvash has spent the majority of her teaching career there, building memories and traditions with her students. But she’s now preparing to say goodbye to the classroom and school that shaped her as a teacher — Brentwood Borough School District officials are closing Elroy and Moore elementaries and opening a new K-5 center this fall.

“I am a little sad,” Golvash said. “But I’m just excited for the new experience and air conditioning.
