Spring Fertility in New York City is a world-first class fertility center that puts patient care first. With origins on the west coast, the Manhattan office is now a first of its kind on the east coast. Ajinkya Patil, CTS-I, DMC-D/E from Convergent Technologies Design Group, Inc. was the architect who designed low voltage systems and infrastructure as well as acoustics, noise, and vibration control designs for this project.
We had the chance to ask Ajinkya, a few questions about the project; this is what he had to say:
Were there any important considerations when designing this project?
“The project being an IVF center, had its unique challenges with a lot of Telecom and AV coordination required for the Medical equipment.
It was also a fast burn project where we went from kickoff to bid documents in the span of a couple of months.”
Are there any aspects of the project that you find exciting and would like to share?
“This was a developer-led project, so there were a lot of peer reviews/owner comments/developer comments, etc.
The design coordination was really iterative and eventually led the client to get a great system as per their expectations. “
Do you place more emphasis on functional or aesthetic design?
“For any project, it needs to be a good balance of both. While the priority is always to make our design functionally as correct as possible, it needs to fit within the architectural setting of the space.
The effort we put in to ensure things don’t look out of place while still functioning as required is what makes our clients appreciate us. “
Was there a philosophy behind the creation of this project?
“E4H is an important client for us. Even though this project was challenging, we were willing to go over and above to support our client.
This ensures we maintain a good relationship with them and opens doors for repeat follow-up business.”
Spring Fertility officially opened to the public in the fall of 2021.
