Healthcare

“Hospitals can be stressful and intimidating places, but we know that better environments secure better health outcomes.”
Andrew Smith, head of healthcare

BDP’s award-winning healthcare team has more than 300 people working under both PFI and framework agreements.

We take on unusual and ambitious briefs but never ‘ship in’ pre-conceived prototypes — we put the user first with imaginative healthcare design. We believe in:

  • real and meaningful user consultation
  • evidence-based design
  • creating spaces for workers as well as patients
  • using skills such as masterplanning and urbanism as part of integrated teams

The Academy of Design and Health described the Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital as creating “an environment that provides quality of life and dignity to people”.
