The exterior architectural photography and renovation modernized hospital building property photos all occurred outside with pictures focusing on Barrington’s Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital’s exterior and new construction glass modern entryway. This renovated hospital property is 1 building out of 15 locations we photographed for our Chicago area Construction Company client. The client hired Miller + Miller Architectural Photography for a multi-project photo assignment, assigning us to capture a set of exterior architectural building photography and photographs of their finest 2017 commercial construction projects. A variety of types of buildings from medical healthcare hospitals photos, to higher education new construction, and hotels & hospitality.

A mix of building construction architectural styles with our photography focusing in on both commercial new construction and renovations around Chicago.
According to the Chicago Tribune story and Northwest Herald article the $247M, 4-year modernization building project’s construction started in 2013 and completed in September 2017. Barrington’s Good Shepherd Hospital first opened in 1979 and now serves patients in Cook, Lake and McHenry counties. The Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital renovation project added 230,000 square feet. The healthcare building construction project included an architect’s reno plan, a hospital design, construction and renovation of 150,000 existing square feet.
The photography shoot had a primary focus on photographs of the new designed entrance and the highlight of the hospital renovation modernization construction at Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital in Barrington. The new modern entrance and new glass exterior building facade is highly visible upon first arriving at the hospital’s main entrance drive. The main entrance doors features new floor-to-ceiling windows, which overlooks a landscaped garden. This new all glass facade opens up and modernizes the old main entrance space, allowing an abundance of natural light to enter into the building. Both the new entryway and addition of a serpentine glass wall construction seamlessly flows visitors into the new Paul and Barbara Hills Center for Advanced Care wing. This modern glass addition dramatically modernizes the building’s main elevation on the Southwest side of the healthcare facility.
