title: Healthcare Design Knowledge Community | James Britt
description: For the past 15 years, I have practiced architecture in healthcare, education, research and recreation. I understand every project is unique and requires an approach that not only highlights and preserves what is important to the client, but also creates a focused set of experiences for the entire team to arrive at and deliver the best solutions. This understanding contributed to my decision to join Array, who demonstrates a commitment to meet client needs by restructuring their design process to better identify needs and improve outcomes.
