We are thrilled to announce that Starship Children's Hospital has been recognised with a Merit Award in the ‘Warren and Mahoney Civic, Health and Arts' category for our Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) expansion project at the prestigious Property Council New Zealand Rider Levett Bucknall Property Industry Awards.()
Hailed as the most prestigious property awards programme in New Zealand, the awards celebrate excellence in design and innovation.
The project includes additional ICU and high dependency unit (HDU) beds, as well as dedicated spaces for whānau and staff. These areas are designed with natural light, bright colours, and ceiling tiles that evoke a tree canopy, creating a calming, nature-inspired environment.
"We are incredibly proud to receive this award," said Kathy Peacock, Facilities Project Manager (Pictured centre, with the team involved with the PICU expansion celebrating their Merit Award). "It celebrates our commitment to enhancing healthcare facilities and improving patient care through innovative design and functionality."
A big shout out to the team who managed the complex work in a live hospital, completing the project 10 weeks ahead of schedule.
Special thanks to our partners: RDT Pacific, Chow:Hill Architects, Rider Levett Bucknall, Built Environs, McConnell Dowell (NZ), Beca, Aurecon, AECOM and Jensen Hughes.
