The exterior of Southern Indiana Orthopedics in Columbus, IN, presents a sleek and modern healthcare facility designed with clarity, precision, and a patient-first mindset. The architecture features a clean palette of light gray panels and red brick accents at the base, establishing a grounded, welcoming presence. A striking glass volume at the building’s entrance anchors the design, flooding the interior with natural light while offering transparency and visual connection to the surrounding landscape. Sharp lines, a refined material palette, and accessible design elements reflect a commitment to wellness, innovation, and community care.

The image shows the modern reception and waiting area of Southern Indiana Orthopedics, featuring a bright, open design with floor-to-ceiling windows along the left wall that bring in natural light and provide views of the exterior. A person in a pink shirt sits in the waiting area, which is furnished with comfortable blue and gray seating including chairs and ottomans arranged in small groupings. The space uses a calming color palette of blues, grays, and natural wood tones. A clean white reception desk is positioned on the right side where a staff member is assisting a visitor. Warm wood accent walls and textured panels add depth to the space, and small potted plants provide touches of greenery. The overall design creates a welcoming, contemporary healthcare environment that feels more like a hotel lobby than a traditional medical waiting room.

The area uses consistent gray carpeting that matches the previous interior image, maintaining the facility's cohesive design aesthetic. Natural light floods the space, creating an airy, open environment. The architectural design emphasizes transparency and connection to the outdoors while providing a comfortable waiting environment for patients and visitors. An exit door is visible on the left wall, and the exposed ceiling structure above adds to the contemporary architectural statement.

BSA proudly planned and designed a new orthopedic medical office building for Southern Indiana Orthopedics. This modern facility simultaneously meets current clinical needs while supporting future expansion. The independent physician owners sought a more prominent and spacious location than their existing clinics—one that would enhance visibility, improve operational flow, and accommodate a future ambulatory surgery center.

The design team worked closely with the physicians to establish guiding principles focused on modern aesthetics, efficiency, and accessibility. The resulting facility includes 24 exam rooms, serves four orthopedic physicians, and features a supporting imaging suite with X-ray capabilities. A highly visible entrance and large windows bring daylight deep into the public spaces, creating a welcoming and patient-friendly environment.

Positioned with direct access to a major highway, the building offers increased convenience and visibility for both patients and staff. Speed to market was essential for this project’s success. The design-build team collaborated to right-size clinical areas and streamline delivery while maintaining quality and function.

This orthopedic medical office building represents a thoughtful, future-ready healthcare solution. Designed for growth and centered on the needs of providers and patients alike, it reflects BSA’s commitment to improving lives through smart, strategic design.
