The UCSF Connie Frank Transplant Center’s design recognizes the “gift of life” and the incredible act of generosity when one donates their sacred organ to a loved one. The Center is located on the 7th Floor of a 1960’s Building that incorporates extraordinary views of the Golden Gate Bridge and Downtown San Francisco. The Center was conceived to provide comprehensive patient services for kidney transplant patient in a calm and graceful environment.

The VA San Francisco Campus Project incorporates a visionary land utilization study that expands the VASF’s Ambulatory Care Programs on an adjacent historic military site overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge. This study was commissioned to determine whether acquisition and development of the site would meet the projected space needs of the Medical Center projected out to 2025. Site development scenarios were presented based on our analysis of the draft SFVAMC Master Plan, projected space needs and the constraints of the campus.

The VA Puget Sound Campus Project is a striking addition to an existing aging hospital campus. The addition is contextually responsive in its scale and orientation and incorporates a new central plaza that unites the campus’ past, present and future. The new addition is composed of three distinct and unique projects that are linked to Mental Health treatment and research. The Design Partnership as Associate Architect planned and designed the new 1. Mental Health Services and Research Building, a new 2. 1,000 stall Parking Structure, and a 3. Seismic Upgrade of the existing campus Hospital that required careful and sensitive phasing of interior renovation to maintain existing operations during construction. The projects required extensive coordination with VA personnel, and considerable understanding of the constraints of the existing campus facilities, utilities and operations.

VA Monterey Ambulatory Care Center is an outstanding example of the VA and Department of Defense (DoD) collaboration that can improve quality, access, and efficiency of health care delivery by co-locating resources, eliminating administrative barriers, and implementing change. The design creates a beautiful and elegant solution that places a healing garden at its heart. Located in one of California’s treasured settings overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Monterey, California, the VA DoD Ambulatory Care Center establishes a neighborhood approach to creating community care.

The Sharp/Grossmont Campus Project comprises multiple medical projects span over 30 years and cumulating with a visionary and significant 1. hospital addition that incorporates an Emergency Department, a Critical Care Wing, and Progressive Care Units to the existing facility at Sharp Grossmont Hospital in La Mesa, California. This five-story, 167,000 square foot addition blends several new concepts in emergency medicine, including: computerized patient tracking and charting, integrated system-wide information systems, and flexible design. The addition replaces functions in the existing facility, providing space for new services and meeting seismic requirements. The other unique Projects include: 2. Emergency Generator, 3. Central Plant Expansion, 4. Cancer Center, 5. Site Development, 6. Entry Lobby, 7. Parking Structure, 8. Physical Rehab, 9. Mental Health, and 10. Women’s Center.

Hybrid Operating Room Projects: The Design Partnership utilizes virtual environments as a visual and innovative tool to assist clinical teams in evaluating equipment positioning and sight lines, and to determine the combination of modalities that can work successfully together as the basis of design for the new prototype Hybrid OR. 1. We replaced the existing Cath Lab Suite at Stanford University’s Hospital with a new state-ofthe-art hybrid interventional radiology/neurosurgical operating room and a new Pediatric Cath Lab 2. Our new design of the Robotic Center OR at UCSF’s Mt. Zion Campus incorporates the new “state of the art” DaVinci Robotic Surgical System that advances innovative clinical procedures while expanding UCSF’s patient capacity.

Technology & Architecture: The Design Partnership is committed to incorporating advanced technology in all our projects. Building information modeling (BIM) allows us to: 1. Use virtual reality during the design phase to test sight lines and eliminate obstructions, 2. Explore massing studies to review site implications, solar orientation and grading, 3. Coordinate building Infrastructure, 4. Provide material quantities to generate more accurate cost estimates, 5. Integrate with LEED software to track sustainable features and credits, and 6. By combining BIM with 3-D laser scans of existing building conditions we are able to design removals and installations of the building infrastructure to ¼” precision. Using these techniques, one of our recent projects came in 37% under the budget and two months ahead of schedule. The Design Partnership was recently honored by the AIA San Francisco for “Integrated Project Delivery” for unifying collaborative design technologies with construction and direct 3-D fabrication technology. This merger of technology sets the stage for a highly collaborative relationship between the Architect, the Contractor, and the Owner.
