1. HEALTH 2015

2. “The Hills Clinic is a beautiful new mental health clinic. It
has 59 beds, regarded as probably one of the top mental
health hospitals in Sydney. A quality beachhead mental
health asset to our company.”
“Most hospitals are designed as hospitals and
look like hospitals. They are usually designed by
hospital specialist architects and the emphasis is on
functionality and compliance. They don’t stand out
or provide a point of difference unlike Pace Architects
who have provided a hospital which is of high quality
in terms of construction, fit-out, space and design.”
Phillipa Blakey
CEO & Managing Director
Pulse Health

3. We consult. We listen. We design.
Managing the project process to promote

Our goal is to improve the current health system experience through our

are dedicated and efficient in all facets of design and development.

highly experienced, client focused and
process centred architectural practice based

and financially viable solutions for our clients.

the Australian economy.
We create smart, long term accommodation
solutions, whilst delivering income and capital
returns for our clients and their investors. We

unnecessary delays in delivering health facilities
in our communities – that often come to stand

healthcare sector.

the premier provider of design excellence
and innovation in design; whilst producing
predictable earnings for our clients and
building a dynamic, educative, challenging
environment for our employees. We build
long-term client relationships on mutual trust,
respect and collaboration.

4. “When you go there and you see the design,
the use of modern construction and the use
of gardens, the return of gardening and the
use of plants in the treatment of mental illness
is quite well documented, you really get a
sense from this building and this place that
this purpose-built facility is going to achieve
its purpose. Buildings have purpose. They
have form. They have a reason for being
designed the way they are. That is no different
with a mental health facility. So of course,
if we have guidelines in this country today
that restrict or impede the development of
such facilities, we ought to look at them.”
Alex Hawke MP.
Parliamentary address Thursday 2nd June 2011

5. Our delivery methodology relies upon an open consultative approach
between the client and project team. We are skilled at managing teams
to create solutions that meet our clients’ operational, functional and
budgetary requirements.
Pace Architects provides a complete range
of consultancy architectural services. With
our “one on one” approach on every project
- we guarantee that our experienced senior
Architects will be the point of contact and see
through the project in its entirety - every time.

Our extensive range of integrated services
enables us to achieve sustainable incomes
and growing value for all of our clients, and
to delivering high quality outcomes for all of
our stakeholders.
We offer best practice and state-of-the-art methodology for the design and
rapid procurement of health projects. Team members are trained in the latest
BIM software with our senior technicians having over 10 years experience
working on this platform.
The implementation of BIM technology is
a benefit to our clients as it applies to all
aspects of the construction of a building,
from the design, the estimating, the supply
chain, the delivery of goods during the build,
the build process, the resource allocation,
the productivity requirements to meet targets
and on to the post-handover phase through
facilities and asset management.
Recent industry reports show that BIM
technology has:
»» 20% reduction in build costs
»» 33% reduction in costs over the
lifetime of the building
»» 47% - 65% reduction in conflicts and
re-work during construction
»» 44% - 59% increase in the overall
project quality
»» 35% - 43% reduction in risk, better
predictability of outcomes
»» 34% - 40% better performing
completed infrastructure
»» 32% - 38% improvement in review and
approval cycles
Our service in BIM delivery on all our projects
has improved the accuracy and speed in
documentation, whilst also created an
integrated cross co-ordination efficiency
between consultant disciplines. It enables
quick 3D output visualization and construction
efficiency during procurement all of which
is added value to our client return on
investments.
Technological knowledge paired with smart
design and harnessed project management
rigor, has enabled Pace Architects have been
able to substantially reduce construction cost
for our clients. Evidence shows up to 50%
in most cases when comparing our projects
to similar sized healthcare projects. The Hills
Clinic hospital is an example of this.

6. “Pace Architects have assisted in the design
and documentation of our Healthcare facility
project in the The Hills Shire Council area
of metropolitan Sydney. The team at Pace
Architects have been involved from the early
concept stage and successfully negotiated
the development approval process. At all
stages the team has provided creative yet
practical advice. They worked within our tight
budgets and responded to all the issues that
arose in a timely manner.”
Dr.Ted Cassidy
Director/Owner
The Hills Clinic

7. “The Australian population continues to grow at a speed that puts the
healthcare system at risk of running short of healthcare facilities to
accommodate all the people who need them. The healthcare system
is responding through a number of solutions, such as telehealth, new
technology, and home care. However the reality is, Australia will need to
build more health facilities across all states in the coming months and years.”
Australian Healthcare week 2015
Our architecture contributes to the positive
delivery of health services in Australia. We
create secure, accessible, non-confrontational
and comfortable therapeutic environments for
the benefit of patients, their families, staff and
visitors. We embed the proven principles of
evidence based design to provide a physical
framework for the safe delivery of patient
focused care.
The project management style that we have
adopted is one that considers staff interaction,
workflow, management efficiencies,
supervision, security and the ongoing building
life cycle is managed by the reduction to
recurrent operational costs via the integration
of proven ESD features.
Delivering the right strategies for the right
projects is where Pace Architects excel -

funding allocation efficiency to deliver
cost effective facilities on time
»» Creating future proof health facilities
