SDS played a key role in delivering high-end, design-driven doorsets for a luxury private healthcare facility at 169 Fulham Road, London.

 

This project blended architectural vision and practical function, requiring a bespoke, aesthetically pleasing doorset package with specialist finishes.  

 

About the project. 

The scheme involved the demolition and full fit-out of a new private healthcare facility in London.

The facility is designed to support both physical and emotional healing in a home-like environment. Memorial Houston Medical places prehabilitation and postoperative care at the heart of its approach,  an ethos reflected in the space itself, which has been purposefully built to promote faster recovery.

SDS was chosen to deliver elegant, durable doorsets that aligned with the client’s vision for a premium patient experience.


High-quality finishes and standout material choices, including American Black Walnut and brass ironmongery, distinguished this project from standard healthcare environments.

What our clients have to say.

"With 169 Fulham Road being Memorial Houston Medical’s flag ship medical facility in the UK, the architecture and interior design of the building had to reflect the client's reputation for outstanding dedication and care for the patient experience. This required finishes of a high quality to create a look and feel that is more consistent with that of a luxury hotel than a medical facility.

When it came to the design and specification of the doors SDS were the obvious choice.  

SDS interpreted our requirements perfectly. Not only do the completed doors and ironmongery look fantastic, they meet the rigorous clinical standards required in a healthcare facility and are robust, ensuring the high quality finish will be maintained for many years.  

Amy Forrest Associate, LSI Architects
“We are proud to have designed MhM’s new London hospital with dignity in mind, fromthe aesthetics to the treatment programmes.People should not lower their expectations – from aesthetics to treatment – becausethey are in a hospital environment; when they are at their most vulnerable, they should,in fact, expect more. That is why we have elevated every detail of the patient experience,from prehabilitation to postoperative care and rehabilitation.”
Danny Shebaclo UK Business Development Lead, Memorial Houston Medical (MhM)
“The SDS team provided both a proactive and professional service throughout the duration of the project, providing technical knowledge and support from design to delivery.”
