A Hospital for the Future

The new hospital will be architecturally outstanding, energy-efficient, seismically sound and environmentally sustainable. To help make this vision a reality, UCSF has selected internationally renowned designer Herzog & de Meuron and architect HDR.

The facility will offer:

Integrated Technology

Advanced integrated technologies that create opportunities for personalized services—wayfinding, entertainment, information—and allow patients to take control of their own health and wellness. 

Natural Beauty

Panoramic views, sunlight, and natural surroundings, and a supportive workplace with optimal resources for clinicians and staff in surroundings that promote their physical and emotional health.

Holistic Care

A holistic healing experience that begins before check-in and extends throughout the stay, discharge sequence, and continued recovery. It will be a place that transforms patients, their families, and support systems into active participants in their healing process.

Privacy and Community

Rooms designed for privacy and infection control, and calming communal spaces that foster stronger, supportive relationships between providers, patients and families.

Increased Capacity to Meet Demand

UCSF Health’s new hospital will help us serve the needs of patients – from the Bay Area and beyond. With a target completion of 2030, final distribution of beds is still in planning, but the additional space will allow us to better serve more patients.
