Frankston Hospital redevelopment designs
Construction of the $1.1 billion Frankston Hospital redevelopment is now underway, with newly released designs revealing a first look at the largest ever health infrastructure investment in Melbourne’s south-east.
The images in the video showcase the design’s earthy tones and layered materials, inspired by the distinctive coastline of the Mornington Peninsula.
In the spotlight

Monash Medical Centre: expanding a busy major hospital
Construction on emergency departments and hospitals has continued through the pandemic, with more vital resources becoming available.
See how we expanded one of Victoria’s busiest emergency departments at the Monash Medical Centre.

Modular construction in healthcare design
Modular construction can deliver fast, high quality and sustainable healthcare buildings. Prefabricated buildings these days are smart, can be built as permanent structures, and the quality is equal to a traditional build.
Explore how we are using the modular approach in healthcare design.
