Expertise - Driven The PhiloWilke Partnership was formed in 1985 by Dana Wilke and Roger Philo on the premise that the best way to serve their healthcare clients is to provide industry-specialized design with client-specific solutions from a team of expertise-driven architects. They created their firm with a niche focus – healthcare and research architecture – and began integrating and training everyone in the office, from administrative staff to interns to architects, in order to respond to each client’s unique requests. PhiloWilke continues to encompass architecture, interior design, planning and development for clients while staying true to Dana and Roger’s founding mission. Our team has grown into a distinct organizational structure, providing the personal and specialized service of a small firm coupled with the depth of experience offered by a large organization. Our design philosophy drives a process that values collaboration, practical design, and strategic consensus-building to help our clients achieve their goals. Our unique and collective experience has propelled PhiloWilke to design many high profile and technically complicated medical projects, including a facility that housed one of the first lithotripters installed in the US. PhiloWilke has designed several one-of-a-kind and first-of-a-kind projects for healthcare and research facilities, which are among the most complicated spaces in the world. A few of our unique projects: the first operational BrainSUITE in the US, located at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center; CyberKnife, located at the Michael Debakey VA Hospital; Elekta’s Synergy Triple Energy Linear Accelerator, located at Memorial Hermann Hospital; one of the largest cyclotrons in the nation, located at M. D. Anderson Cancer Center; the largest NMR facility in the nation, located at Texas A&M University; and the installation of the new IR Discovery Interventional Radiology Unit at Houston Methodist San Jacinto Hospital.

The MCA Foundation had a vision to create “a look into the future”, a statement that announced the arrival of the Medical Center of the Americas throughout the biotechnology industry. More importantly, they sought to revitalize the economically distressed community surrounding the Technology Park. To achieve this level of stature the foundation required an iconic structure. The Cardwell Collaborative’s distinctively modern design provides a sense of transparency, aesthetically expressing the research being done within. To articulate this feature, the transparent glazing and stair towers offer the occupants’ views of the local landscape, while acting as a visual experience to those passing by. This transparent exterior creates a dynamic visual element through the use of continually changing LED lighting. The canted and bent façade, a subtle nod to the region’s mountain range and its cantilevered brow becomes a lit beacon at night.

PhiloWilke Partnership was selected as the lab planner for Johnson & Johnson’s newest incubator start-up “work space”. J Labs, was designed to be a home for incubator startup companies. Johnson & Johnson Innovation desired a space which inhabited both scientific research and collaborative areas for cultivation of new ideas. PhiloWilke’s team was selected to provide the lab planning services. While designing only a portion of the facility, our challenge was anything but simple. We needed to create a laboratory system that inspired the scientists it housed while meeting all code requirements. As the facility’s Lab Planner, PhiloWilke had limited access to decision makers during the design phase. To ensure we were able to capture the needs of the facility users, we prepared our design sessions knowing that decisions would need to be made quickly. Based on the preliminary information we generated a number of lab options for their reaction. With our ability to work within the building model onsite we were able to manipulated the owner’s selected scheme

The challenge with this project was meeting the requirements of multiple clients and research departments. The design guidelines and building standards of both institutions had to be achieved simultaneously and cohesively. In addition to the two institutions, several Health Science Center departments will co-habitat the floor and share core spaces. The primary department is the Nanomedicine/Biomedical Engineering department however the Center for Laboratory Animal Medicine and Care will maintain the vivarium and research animals for the other department’s research. Also several lab spaces were designed for future unknown departments requiring those labs to be generic enough to accommodate a variety of research types but be specific enough to provide efficient inclusive spaces and equipment to accommodate productive research..

This large, hyper-track research project is a build-out of shell space on multiple floors for biomedical research laboratory, support space, and offices. Higher education research laboratories by their nature are complex, requiring careful and often time-consuming consideration throughout planning, design, and construction. Spaces must meet quality and testing requirements and be flexible enough to meet demands of various users without the high costs associated with the goals of infinitely flexible space. We continue to increase our challenges by creating “impossible” deadlines: this is not just a challenge to see if it can be done, but brings forth real dialogue about the benefits of realizing projects in less time. Allowing users to move into their spaces more quickly is a tangible benefit to institutions competing for world class researchers.
