“UCI Susan Samueli Integrative Health Institute required a healthcare interiors firm to lend their expertise and creative suggestions for the design and interior aesthetics of the clinical space. We were impressed with the experience, talent, and work ethic of Christine and her team. Pickett Design Associates had recently completed our UCI Health Newport Beach clinic so working with them on the flagship location was an excellent and suitable fit.

The project was on a tight schedule and Christine and her team moved quickly to get oriented with the project goals and expectations in order to ensure that the work was completed on schedule, without compromising the quality of the work or delaying the overall building timeline. The Pickett Design Associates team communicated effectively throughout the fast-track schedule.

The completed project is a beautiful space, and we are grateful for their collaboration! ”

“I am delighted to endorse Pickett Design Associates (PDA) for any healthcare projects. Their deep understanding of creating healing environments and attention to the tiniest detail makes them my preferred choice in their field. Their patient-centered design concepts focus on architectural finishes, art, graphics, signage and wayfinding, all crucial elements in crafting a healing patient experience.”

“Swinerton collaborated with Pickett Design on the Kaiser Permanente Playa Vista MOB project, a 33,500 SF tenant improvement initiative. The partnership was marked by a strong team orientation and collaborative spirit, particularly evident during the challenging times brought about by COVID-19 when material lead times became highly unpredictable due to factory closures. A notable example of this collaboration was when Pickett Design identified alternative tiles that suited the construction schedule and helped coordinate material pickup.

The Pickett Design team demonstrated outstanding responsiveness to Requests for Information (RFIs) and efficiently processed approvals for our submittals and samples. Their proactive approach included promptly verifying samples in the field, highlighting their acute attention to detail. Despite their accommodating demeanor, the Pickett Design team remained steadfast in preserving the overall design intent without compromise.

“Pickett’s deep expertise resulted in innovative ways to speed up certain steps and thoughtful floor plan layouts that made the spaces seem expansive and supportive. They selected beautiful finishes, furniture, and special touches to enhance the experience. They adeptly managed our leaders’ strong personalities and drove consensus so we could open the clinics on time.

Pickett’s team is the best in the business. They sweat the details, work well with cross-functional team members, deliver extraordinary spaces, and can pull it off on time and on budget. ”

“I would consider Ms. Hardin highly qualified for any medical/hospital interior design work that you may be considering for her and PDA. Her many years of experience in this field contributed greatly to the successful outcome of the project. Ms. Hardin and her team demonstrated extreme professionalism and responsiveness throughout the project, providing UCLA with creative and economical solutions to our design challenges, ultimately delivering remarkably impressive results.”

“Christine and Linda were easy to work with and helpful throughout the design and construction phases. They considered our design goals and budget constraints while honing in the final interior palette. As a large healthcare provider with high traffic spaces, Kaiser Permanente has strict interior requirements. Pickett created an elegant interior with a hospitality feel, not a cold medical environment, while meeting our requirements. The building users and administration are extremely satisfied with the look and cohesiveness of the interior spaces. The building continues to get praises from both our staff and members. The building is truly beautiful and a massive transformation from the original space. ”
