STARS is set to challenge what we expect from health facilities and change the way people recover from serious treatment, with a design that reflects the latest insights into better long-term care.
The Surgical, Treatment and Rehabilitation Service (STARS) is the first building to be completed as part of the redevelopment of Herston Quarter – an expansive health and wellbeing precinct in Brisbane, Australia, master-planned and designed by Hassell.
This best-practice facility is a working model of a connected healing environment – a place designed to improve both the experience and outcomes of patients recovering from surgery.
For more information on this project visit the Herston Quarter STARS page on the Hassell website.

Our purpose is to design the world’s best places – places people love.
Globalisation, climate change, urbanisation, and digitisation present new opportunities and challenges for how we live.
In this fast-changing context, we bring together the best designers and thinkers in a unique collaborative process that results in both beautiful design and measurable value.
We work across architecture, landscape architecture, interior design and urban design - a rich multi-disciplinary mix of skills and perspectives that unlocks the economic, social and cultural value of projects.
We combine our creative design expertise with capabilities in strategy, research, technology and experience design, and we regularly collaborate with experts and partners from further afield.
Through our work, we’re trying to build a more inclusive, sustainable future for communities - and create a more socially and ecologically resilient world.
Our clients look to us for more than our design skills. They want us to help them unlock value for their business and their end users – and find ways to better connect people.
