Integrated Interior Design Services
Dec 18, 2025

Healthcare facilities must accomplish several purposes simultaneously; they must promote healing for patients, create a foundation for efficiency and communication among staff, and provide comfort and amenities for family, friends, and other visitors. Designing spaces that serve these concurrent roles is our passion.
At Grace Design Studios, architecture and interior design services are intrinsically connected, promoting collaboration and cohesion during design. These integrated services allow us to approach projects through multiple perspectives simultaneously and consider overlapping goals and constraints throughout the entirety of the project.
Associate Principal John Zierdt, IIDA, CID, CHID explains, “We provide the client with the whole package – architecture and interior design should be a collaborative effort from the beginning of conceptual design through final project completion. From a logistics standpoint, our approach allows for a more streamlined and efficient design process by eliminating the time and resources required for separate architectural and interior design firms to collaborate.”
With each project we complete, our team’s shared knowledge base continues to grow, and that knowledge is passed on to craft the best possible design solutions for our clients.

“One of the really wonderful aspects of Grace Design is the vast amount of knowledge and experience that exists within our office,” explains Pam Franklin, IIDA, CHID, EDAC, LSSBB, WELL AP, Interior Designer. “At Grace, architects and interior designers work as a team to share knowledge and create cohesive, well-planned projects. By integrating these disciplines, every team member can contribute their knowledge and experience, so both architects and interior designers grow professionally and gain a deeper understanding of a broad range of healthcare facility types. This continuous learning process allows us to provide innovative workplace solutions for our clients and the end users.”
Every design decision matters in realizing a client’s vision—from optimizing workflow and adjacencies to selecting finishes and furnishings that directly support the type of care delivered. Our team is fluent in the full design continuum, guiding projects seamlessly from initial concept through the completed, built environment. Working in seamlessly together, architecture and interior design are not just complementary—they are essential to creating spaces that perform, inspire, and endure.
