Pharmacy Design Specialists
30 Years’ Pharmacy Design Experience
Proven Retail Design Principles
Practical, Compliant, and Efficient Design
Pharmacy environments require a careful balance between compliance, efficiency, and customer experience.
With over 30 years’ experience designing pharmacies across Australia, our work in this sector is grounded in real-world retail knowledge and a deep understanding of how pharmacies operate day to day.
Rather than applying generic design formulas, we draw on time-tested retail design principles—many of which are outlined in The Power of Retail Design—to create environments that prioritise clarity, usability, and long-term adaptability.
This approach ensures each pharmacy communicates effectively with customers, supports efficient staff workflow, and remains compliant while continuing to perform as retail expectations and behaviours evolve.
Pharmacy Planning and Layout Development
Workflow, Zoning, and Regulatory Compliance
3D Design Concepts and Visualisation
Pharmacy board Approval Documentation
Detailed Drawings for Tender and Construction
Our pharmacy design services cover the full design process, from early planning through to documentation suitable for approval, tender, and construction.
We begin with detailed planning and layout development, focusing on workflow efficiency, regulatory requirements, and customer experience. This stage establishes clear zoning for front-of-store, dispensary, and back-of-house functions, forming a practical foundation for all subsequent design decisions.
Design concepts are then developed using 3D visualisation, allowing the proposed environment to be clearly understood before proceeding. These concepts are used to test spatial relationships, signage hierarchy, and overall customer clarity, ensuring the design intent is aligned with operational and brand objectives.
Where required, we prepare documentation to support pharmacy board and regulatory approvals, ensuring layouts and design solutions respond appropriately to compliance obligations and industry standards.
The final stage involves the production of detailed design documentation suitable for tendering and construction. These drawings are prepared with implementation in mind, providing clarity for builders, shopfitters, and suppliers, and supporting a smoother delivery process on site.

Design solutions grounded in proven retail principles
A considered approach to pharmacy design
Pharmacy design is not a one-size-fits-all process. Each site presents its own operational, regulatory, and commercial challenges, and effective outcomes rely on experience rather than templates.
Our approach is shaped by decades of pharmacy and retail design work across Australia, combined with a clear understanding of how physical environments influence customer behaviour and staff efficiency. The result is pharmacy design that is practical, compliant, and grounded in proven retail principles.
