We work closely with hospital owners, doctors, investors, and overseas Pakistanis to ensure every healthcare project meets international standards while remaining cost-effective. Our professional services start at PKR 90–120 per sq. ft. for hospital design, ensuring that every rupee invested translates into high-quality, long-lasting facilities.
📌 Why Hospital Design Matters Before Construction
Hospital design is not just about aesthetics or building walls—it is a strategic foundation for operational efficiency, patient safety, and regulatory compliance. Building a hospital without proper planning can lead to:
Poor patient flow and congestion
Increased risk of infections
Inefficient use of space and resources
Higher long-term operational costs
Delays in government approvals
A well-executed hospital design ensures efficient workflows, optimized patient care, and cost-effective construction. It is especially crucial in Pakistan, where hospitals face challenges such as population growth, limited land availability, and growing healthcare expectations.
📊 Hospital Infrastructure Demand in Pakistan
Healthcare in Pakistan is growing rapidly. Some key statistics highlight the urgency of proper hospital planning:
Pakistan has ~1.2 hospital beds per 1,000 population, far below WHO recommendations.
Private hospitals are expanding, with Lahore and Islamabad seeing 20–30% new hospital investments annually.
Government policies are increasingly requiring compliance with design and safety standards, making pre-construction planning essential.
Overseas Pakistanis are investing in healthcare infrastructure, preferring hospitals with modern design and technology.
These trends make hospital design in Pakistan a critical first step before construction, ensuring facilities meet current and future healthcare needs.
🏗 Core Components of Hospital Design
Professional hospital design includes multiple interconnected systems:
1️⃣ Master Planning & Hospital Zoning
Hospital zoning separates areas based on risk and function. Proper zoning prevents cross-contamination and ensures smooth patient flow.
| Zone | Examples |
|---|---|
| Public Areas | Reception, Waiting, Pharmacy |
| Clinical Areas | OPDs, Labs, Radiology |
| Procedure Zones | OTs, ICU, CCU |
| Contaminated Zones | Waste Handling, Laundry |
| Staff Support | Administration, Doctor Lounges |
2️⃣ MEP & HVAC Systems
Modern hospitals rely on Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) systems for safety and efficiency.
Key features:
HEPA-filtered air systems with positive/negative pressure zones
Medical gas systems for oxygen, nitrous oxide, and vacuum
Fire suppression and smoke extraction systems
Energy-efficient lighting and HVAC
Nurse call and patient monitoring systems
These systems directly affect patient safety and operational efficiency.
