Our experience
LSI is one of the UK’s leading Architects in the Healthcare sector, and has a strong track record in the successful design and delivery of acute healthcare, primary healthcare and private healthcare projects from £10K to £100M+.
In our clients’ words
“I would not hesitate to recommend LSI as a service provider to other customer organisations. The LSI team have a collaborative way of working and support us with delivering successful projects. They understand the needs of a healthcare organisation and have the patient in mind throughout the project lifecycle.”
Our expertise
We provide input from project inception and business case stages through to completion, including masterplanning, architectural and interior design services.
Our experience includes work within existing hospital or health centre sites and challenging planning contexts, as well as historic buildings.
Our Healthcare Team offers vast experience in healthcare design and special strengths in terms of a people who are extremely knowledgeable in respect of current HBN’s, HTM’s, Building Regulations and other requirements (eg BREEAM for Health), and well established processes for ensuring the coordination of technical and servicing requirements as part of integrated design solutions.
Stakeholder Engagement
Above all. . . . We listen.
We actively engage and inspire stakeholders to openly share their aspirations for a project. Drawing from our extensive experience of collaborating with key stakeholder groups, including facilities managers, clinicians/teachers, support staff, users (patients/students), relatives, and the broader community, we ensure a comprehensive understanding of project requirements.
We use a range of techniques throughout the design process to present and explore ideas to gain valuable feedback in order to deliver a building or space that better meets the needs of the end users.
