Healthcare Interior Design
When a new facility opens, we want the first impression to be one of total delight: beautiful colors, light filled spaces, clean and durable finishes, and a strong sense of place. We aim to create inviting, reassuring, and safe environments to welcome both patients and staff. We are mindful of the importance of facility standards, cleanliness, infection control, and durability in all our design details.
Hospital Master Planning
Long-range planning enables institutions to prepare a framework for the inevitable growth and change that will occur on their campuses and in their enterprises. Capital investment can be guided by a framework of specific prioritization of goals and understanding of the overarching mission of the organization. A leadership focused master planning process draws attention to both the vision and the possibilities for the future.
Healthcare Programming
Developing a space program that incorporates your projected patient volumes, FGI requirements, and best practices, along with being inclusive of support spaces and infrastructure, is vital to a realistic understanding of your space needs. A comprehensive program assessment will include an understanding of your mission, values, and goals for the project.
Feasibility Studies
We can test the feasibility of project ideas with planning test fits, code compliance analysis, and engineering capacity to determine the viability of a project and establish the project scope. An early and quick analysis can save a client both time and expense and allows consideration of multiple options before establishing the project scope.
