Healthcare

Designing oncology and cancer care environments requires balancing advanced medical technology with compassionate, patient-centered design. Our multidisciplinary teams design outpatient treatment centers, infusion suites, radiation oncology departments, diagnostic imaging, and support services for patients through every stage of their cancer journey.

From hospitality-inspired waiting areas and private infusion bays to healing gardens, rooftop terraces, and thoughtfully designed family spaces, we create settings that promote comfort, reduce anxiety, and bring treatment a little closer to “home.”

Designing neurology and neurorehabilitation environments requires balancing patient safety with spaces that promote recovery and independence. LaBella creates patient-centered environments that support the full continuum of care, incorporating safe patient rooms, gait training spaces, specialized imaging, strategically located observation and infusion areas, and flexible spaces for therapy, activity, dining, and sleep that accommodate each patient’s rehabilitation journey.

Our experience includes designing a state-of-the-art comprehensive neurological center that became the prototype for the largest neurological project in the country, demonstrating our ability to deliver innovative environments that advance neurological care.

Designing compounding pharmacies requires a thorough understanding of regulatory requirements, cleanroom environments, and clinical workflows. LaBella has decades of experience in USP pharmacy design and has completed pharmacy projects for some of the largest healthcare institutions in the United States. Our multidisciplinary teams create pharmacy spaces that support USP compliance through carefully planned workrooms, anterooms, pressure-controlled environments, and integrated building systems. We also coordinate HVAC systems, emergency power, and network connectivity with pharmacy layouts to create environments that meet rigorous regulatory standards while supporting safe, efficient medication preparation.

Beyond pharmacy design, LaBella specializes in cleanroom facilities, including prefabricated cleanrooms. Our experience includes designing the nation’s largest current good manufacturing practices (cGMP) academic facility for cell and viral therapy, demonstrating our ability to deliver highly controlled environments for advanced research and pharmaceutical manufacturing.

From academic science labs to advanced simulation spaces, healthcare education facilities provide a foundation for the next generation of healthcare professionals. By leveraging our expertise in healthcare, higher education, and emerging technology, we design environments that enhance teaching, learning, and hands-on clinical training.

Our team delivers planning and design services for new construction, seamlessly integrating student- and patient-centered design principles. As demand for health sciences education grows, we also transform existing facilities through renovations that modernize building envelopes and MEP systems, incorporate advanced technology, and create state-of-the-art learning and collaboration spaces.
