Healthcare facilities are
“cities” within cities with both a diversity and complexity of patients and
visitors, staff and logistics.
STH
approach each project from a strong design and operational knowledge base, to
provide a unique and operationally sustainable solution. Through dialogue and
collaboration we strive to provide designs that enhance the experience for all
users.
Design
Quality in any building is all encompassing and holistic. The STH philosophy
ensures that key principles of good quality design are inherent in all projects
the practice undertakes, from concept through to completion.
These include:
- Use of
Evidence Based Design (EDAC principles)
- Involvement
in Research and Post occupancy Design, for Hospitals and Aged Care.
- Integrated
Architecture and Interiors with in house expertise
- Effective
and Intuitive wayfinding
- Operational
Efficiency and Functional Planning
- Future
proofing, flexibility and universal standardisation as required
- Staging and
Decanting and long term master planning
- Unique
architecture that reflects the vision and brand of the client within a
competitive market.
STH are passionate,
knowledgeable and energetic and collaborate with each client to provide a
building that exceeds their expectations and is not only architecturally
striking, but works functionally to provide the framework for healthcare
professionals to deliver their model of care. STH use a variety of mediums to
design and document, and with the integration of BIM, 3D Visualisation, room
data sheet and asset management provide a long term, structured documentation
system to our clients. This provides certainty for clients to cost, build, operate
and maintain their facilities.
