Veterinary design combines healthcare precision with industrial durability. MSK applies expertise from both sectors to create facilities that support animal welfare, efficient staff workflow, and positive client experience.
Examples
- Hills Wildlife Animal Hospital — a purpose-built facility integrating treatment, diagnostics, and client care within a compassionate environment.
Challenges & Solutions
- Workflow: Public, treatment, and back-of-house areas must be separate. Solution: clear zoning and circulation mapping.
- Animal stress: Noise and light must be controlled. Solution: acoustic separation and daylighting strategies.
- Hygiene: Spaces must withstand heavy use. Solution: durable, easy-clean detailing.
Cross-Sector Readiness
- Healthcare links: Infection control and wellbeing strategies directly inform veterinary facilities.
- Industrial links: Durable finishes and services integration support long-term performance.
