Healthcare planning and design
has been a central component of
Ballinger's practice throughout
its history. Ballinger's interdisciplinary teams of architects
and engineers understand the
challenges of creating patientoriented environments for a
range of modalities within the
clinically and technically complex
nature of the building type. Our
approach to design is a highly
collaborative effort intent on
understanding the client's mission,
project goals and desires and
translating those expectations
into an environment that is not
simply a functional solution,
but an exceptional place. Our
commitment to design excellence
results in award-winning projects
that are flexible, cost effective, and
environmentally responsible.
