Delivering a space that works for patients, staff, and the community

The Challenge
The practice had outgrown its previous premises. HL was appointed by South East London ICB to find a new site and advise on options. The Clapham Road location, provided by Hyde Housing Group, was perfect in size and location—but as a former head office, it required a complete redesign and fit-out.
Our Approach
We worked closely with the practice through workshops to create a design tailored to their needs. Highlights include:

  • Reimagined layout: A welcoming, patient-focused environment
  • Full clinical fit-out: Compliant with HBNs and HTMs, including all support spaces
  • Integrated systems: Collaboration with SEL ICB’s Infection Control and IT teams
  • Complete refurbishment: Strip-out of partitions, finishes, and services
  • Regulatory compliance: Change of use and Building Regulations permissions secured

Project Delivery
HL also supported South East London ICB in tendering and contract administration, ensuring the design intent was maintained from concept to completion.
The Result

  • Modern & accessible: Improves patient experience and staff efficiency
  • Future-proofed design: Adapts to evolving practice needs
  • Community-focused: A space that serves patients today and tomorrow

“The project transformed the practice into a welcoming, efficient environment that truly supports patient care.”
