Te Whatu Ora, Timaru Hospital
By DLA Architects
Our team is proud to have created a building that not only meets the functional requirements of a hospital but also elevates the experience of patients and visitors.
The approach to this project was to develop a design that consists of three distinct structures, connected through a light-filled central atrium. By incorporating a range of indoor and outdoor spaces, we aimed to create a welcoming and human-centered environment that alleviates the clinical stresses associated with large hospital complexes.
We utilized thermally efficient building systems and carefully controlled acoustics along with natural materials such as locally quarried Bluestone and natural timber to create a pleasant environment and to reflect the surrounding landscape and contribute to the overall sustainability of the building.
The front of Timaru Hospital development is a testament to our commitment to design excellence, sustainability, and innovation

Dickson Lonergan Architects (DLA) was founded in Whanganui in 1974 with founding partners Bruce Dickson (retired) and the late Barry Lonergan. Once fully established in the Whanganui region, DLA then started to expand the business, first into Wellington in 1999 with Barry and Glenn starting up the capital city office. Then came the Timaru Office headed up by Murray Ackroyd in 2005 and the further expansion to Hamilton in 2010 with Martin Swann.
The opportunity then arose to open an Auckland office in 2015 with Alana moving north from Wellington. Now with 5 offices, DLA has evolved from its humble beginnings into a nationwide practice, with a passionate team of architects and designers who specialise in all fields from commercial, residential, industrial, interiors, education and public projects through to DLA’s main stay of large scale dairy and food processing architecture.
