Celebrating 35 Years of HSPC Health Architects: Honouring Our Legacy, Embracing Our Future
HSPC Health Architects celebrates 35 years of designing people-centred, sustainable healthcare spaces — honouring its legacy of trust and integrity while shaping the future of care across Australia and New Zealand.
This year marks a significant milestone for HSPC Health Architects — 35 years of shaping meaningful, resilient and people-centred healthcare environments across Australia and New Zealand.
As we reflect on more than three decades of practice, we honour the vision and values that have guided us since day one and continue to underpin who we are today: integrity, commitment, excellence, and genuine partnership.
A Legacy Built on Relationships, Trust and Purpose
In celebrating this milestone, Director Chris Doufas reflected on the values instilled by HSPC’s founder — his father — whose influence continues to define the practice:
“The HSPC way is about building strong relationships, keeping our promise, and ensuring health projects are viable and ‘stack up’. This approach is even more vital in today’s market.”
Chris shared deeply personal reflections on succession, resilience and trust; themes that have shaped HSPC’s journey.
Looking Ahead: A New Chapter, Same Commitment
Directors Stephen Sinclair and Matthew Szymula acknowledged the significance of this moment, a celebration of what has been achieved, and a launchpad for what comes next:“We’ve got a team building on a solid foundation, with a clear sense of purpose: to create truly great healthcare environments.”
Our approach is grounded in a deep understanding of the health and aged-care landscape and a determination to improve it by building design solutions up from the business case, and we stay focused on the future of health and aged care.
“We don’t overdevelop through lazy planning; we are making better use of existing assets, and designing spaces that enable care providers to deliver the best possible care.”
The Next Journey
As we celebrate the decades of impact, we remain grounded in the values and vision that started it, while embracing new opportunities to deliver future-focused, sustainable and community-centred health environments.
To our clients and colleagues — thank you for being part of our journey. We look forward to continuing to shape the future of healthcare together.
