Healthcare Research

Healthcare Design Insights furthers evidence-based healthcare design, offering practical tools and ideas to healthcare administrators, facility managers, and developers.

Evidence based design, which mirrors evidence based healthcare, is core to our design ethos at Mahlum. This means using real, quantifiable data — including lessons learned — from past and current projects to illustrate a range of approaches and inform current and future design.

Welcome to the fifth edition of Healthcare Design Insights.

This issue delves into Integrated Sustainability in Healthcare, where we examine three projects at the leading edge of sustainability. Each project illustrates a very different approach for defining sustainability, setting goals, conceptualizing built solutions, and achieving significant sustainability improvements.

Within the three examples you will find you can push the boundaries of sustainability by using the Living Building Challenge, mastering LEED in order to reduce the use of natural resources, and refocusing your creativity to achieve energy neutrality.

Insights is born of the same passion that guides Mahlum design. We're curious and love investigating the multiple factors driving a particular building system or material choice. We're passionate about sharing knowledge and experience. And we yearn to design and build better.
