The design for this cancer care facility is based on the emotional well-being of the patients. SLAM provided a peaceful yet inspiring exterior form and an uplifting and comforting interior environment that will provide hope to the cancer patients.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
