Metrostudio collaborated with renowned architecture firm Ennead to produce a series of high-end architectural renderings for the new Public Health Academic Building at SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University. Our visuals helped convey the building's modern structure, educational purpose, and urban significance within Brooklyn’s only academic medical center.
The design consists of three architecturally distinct volumes: a lower bar containing classrooms and public spaces, a middle bar for faculty offices, research facilities, and a cutting-edge simulation center, and an upper bar dedicated to biomedical research labs. Our renderings showcased the bold massing, open-plan lab designs, and signature V-columns that elevate the western half of the building to create a civic entry plaza.

From the illuminated V-columns to the transparent double-height lobby, the building was designed to be both functional and symbolic. Working alongside Ennead, we illustrated these defining architectural elements to support stakeholder presentations and public engagement efforts, emphasizing both design clarity and institutional identity.

"Academic architecture should inspire the next generation.
Our visuals helped shape that inspiration before doors ever opened".
