Capabilities
Architecture
At CB Design Group, we believe that architecture and design are not only about creating beautiful, functional environments—they are powerful tools that can shape lives, promote healing, and enhance the human experience. Thoughtfully designed spaces have the ability to foster interaction, support wellness, inspire discovery, and bring lasting joy to the people who live, work, and heal in them. Especially in healthcare architecture and federal facility design, we recognize the profound impact the built environment can have on patients, staff, and communities.
Our team is passionate about delivering memorable, purpose-driven spaces that reflect our clients’ missions and meet their operational needs. Through a collaborative design process with stakeholders and consultants, we align architectural vision with technical requirements, budget constraints, and schedule goals. We understand the responsibility inherent in every project—particularly in VA healthcare design and government architecture—and are committed to creating facilities that serve their users with excellence for generations to come.

Interior Design
Interior design is the critical connection between architecture and the people who use the space. Interior environments and their occupants share a powerful, symbiotic relationship—spaces only reach their full potential when people engage with them physically, emotionally, and functionally. Our approach to interior design in healthcare and federal facilities focuses on creating environments that promote healing, productivity, and discovery. By designing with intention and empathy, we transform interior spaces into places of comfort, connection, and purpose. Whether it’s a VA medical center, a government office, or a public facility, our interior design work enhances the user experience at a personal, tactile, and experiential level, bringing meaning and well-being into every detail.
Life Safety
Our in-house life safety and code compliance experts are integrated into the architectural design process from the earliest phases of conceptual design through construction. This close collaboration with our design team ensures that every project benefits from proactive code analysis, risk mitigation, and cost-effective life safety solutions. By addressing code requirements early, we minimize delays, control costs, and enhance overall project quality. The result is a well-coordinated, code-compliant, and safer built environment—especially critical in VA healthcare facilities and other complex federal architecture projects.
Construction Administration
Our team offers comprehensive Construction Administration (CA) services backed by uniquely qualified personnel with deep expertise in both design and construction management. CB Design Group prioritizes continuity of leadership throughout the life of a project, meaning the team that designs your facility will carry it through CA without interruption.
