Architecture

Our philosophy is that successful architecture is about great design, medical planning, and implementation.  The best ideas come from the best team.  Wilmot Sanz is a firm of national stature that has carefully maintained the efficient structure and culture of accountability of a local firm.  By specializing exclusively in healthcare design, we have focused our design process, production standards, and continuing education efforts on issues and trends specific to this complex industry.  Our team includes certified experts in sustainability and process-centered design.  We take pride in our decades-long relationships with some of the nation’s top healthcare providers, each encompassing dozens of projects ranging from minor renovations to replacement hospitals.  We understand that our reputation and future success depend on responsive client service and the quality of our work and treat every project as an opportunity to prove this commitment to excellence.

Interior Design

A healthcare facility is a dynamic space that must accommodate the needs of a diverse group of patients, families, staff and new technologies.  With more than 50 years of specialized design experience, we know the importance of improving your brand. Our approach to “place-making” is to create the optimal setting for the healing environment and the community it serves. Our design team creates welcoming, nurturing spaces using healthcare-grade materials and products that are functional, durable, and easily maintainable.  We work with our clients to articulate a unique vision. Many times, our work will initiate a campus transformation, helping our clients update or define their facility- or system-wide interior design standards based on our knowledge of current best practices.

Planning

In a rapidly changing environment for the healthcare industry, we regularly work with our clients to develop thoughtful road maps to the future at a variety of scales, from integrating with innovation districts and urban visions to developing comprehensive medical campus master plans and service line expansion strategies to facility and departmental functional space planning. Our planners carefully balance each client’s current needs and priorities with long-term strategy and flexibility.  This type of big-picture thinking is this basis of all our design projects, however we also work frequently with clients on standalone planning engagements and in partnership with other architectural firms to provide medical planning expertise to the team.
