Press
Release:
Gerry Veley has been commissioned to design,
fabricate and install the stained glass for
the new Providence Newberg Medical Center Reflection
Room. The window measures approximately
nine feet high and ten feet wide. The
abstract design will be both quiescent and introspective
in its expression. The design and the choice
of glass will offer the occupants of the Reflection
Room privacy while at the same time allowing
the outside environment to interact with the
interior of the Reflection Room.
Mahlum Architects are the designers for the
medical center and its interiors. Michael
Smith is the principal-in-charge and Victoria
Nichols is the project manager. Mahlum
Architects, founded in 1938, is a firm of 90
people in Portland and Seattle. The firm
is committed to creating enduring and poetic
architecture to enrich the human experience.
Over the past 20 years Gerry Veley has designed
and fabricated numerous windows for the Sister

Center on 47th and N.E. Glisan Street, Milwaukie
Providence Hospital, St. Joseph Medical
Center in Burbank, California, Mother Joseph
Care Center in Olympia, Washington and Providence
Office Park in N.E. Portland.
