"We’ve worked with the DLA team over many years to modernise and create a strategic property asset base that reflects our clinics both as an investment, as well as a distinct advantage for our people to have a great place to work, and where our clients experience the highest level of care we can provide to their animals.

"We find the DLA team to be credible, efficient, reliable and fun to work with. They have a focus on your best interests and work hard to make it a great experience."

DLA Architects Limited have handled a variety of projects with Timaru Hospital including the refurbishment of numerous clinical and administration spaces, extensions to the Emergency Department and Resuscitation facility and the recently completed AT&R facility, Endoscopy Procedure Unit and Front of Hospital Atrium, Café and Outpatients extension.

On the Endoscopy Procedure Unit, DLA successfully navigated a series of design challenges within a limiting existing building footprint to achieve a highly efficient and functional high hygiene clinical environment with excellent patient and staff flow.

During all projects DLA engaged collaboratively during the concept design phase with our front-line user groups, always listening and supporting constructive conversations around space allocations and functional requirements.

DLA have always provided timely and well considered responses to issues arising under discovery during construction enabling projects to remain on track.

After the seamless experience we had with DLA Architects in the design and build of our Coromandel Beach House we had no hesitation in working with them on the renovation of our Farm House.

Once again they listened to our requirements and came up with a redesign that not only delivered a modern, spacious but private dwelling but enhanced the spectacular rural views without affecting the environment in which it sits.

Their ability to listen, understand and work with us made the experience pleasantly memorable.
