BOSTON – Margulies Perruzzi (MP) announced that it has completed three projects for Lahey Hospital & Medical Center (LHMC) in Burlington, Mass., a world-renowned tertiary academic medical center known for its innovative technology, pioneering medical treatment, and leading-edge research.
Since 2018, MP has designed over 10 projects for LHMC. The most recent projects include a modular Electrophysiology (EP) lab, a Neurointerventional Radiology (NIR) room, and an Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) clinic.
Previous projects involved a new Endoscopy department, MRI suite improvements, a COVID lab, an 18-bed Intensive/Progressive Care Unit renovation, and a simulation lab.
The healthcare studio at MP focuses on elevating the patient and caregiver experiences while integrating deep technical expertise. An experienced team provides leadership and project management to thoughtfully guide the design process and deliver architecture that exceeds expectations. Daylight, clear-wayfinding, inviting public spaces, state-of-the-art clinical planning, and efficient work environments enhance the firm’s designs to meet the challenges of today and tomorrow.
“We understand that healthcare environments play a crucial role in healing and recovery. Designing healthcare projects requires a delicate balance between functionality, innovation, and sensitivity to the needs of patients and medical staff,” said John Fowler, AIA, EDAC, LEED AP, director of healthcare and partner at Margulies Perruzzi. “We work hard to develop strong relationships with our clients, and we are proud Lahey has trusted us with its projects.”
