David Martin, global design director, joins The Urbanist podcast to offer insights on how community-led design can impact the healthcare sector
How can we truly integrate healthcare facilities into our communities? The goal is to create assets that bring opportunities for the local area, while also improving patient outcomes.
Our global design director, David Martin, was interviewed by Monocle’s The Urbanist podcast about the built environment. In this episode, he highlights several projects that push the boundaries of what’s possible in design. The results deliver meaningful benefits for people and neighborhoods.
Speaking to host Andrew Tuck, Martin shows his passion for designing critical healthcare facilities while improving the lives of the people who use them every day: “These projects should be giving a gift back to the community in the form of making a more significant addition to the public realm.”
