HED Welcomes Jacob Campbell as Associate Principal to Advance Healthcare Design in the Northeast

BOSTON, Sept. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- HED, a leading integrated architecture and engineering firm, proudly announces the appointment of Jacob Campbell, AIA, LEED Green Associate, as Associate Principal, Design in the Boston office. Campbell brings more than fifteen years of experience designing complex healthcare, civic, and mixed-use environments, with a portfolio spanning transformative hospital campuses, large-scale urban developments, and community-centered institutions.

Driven by a passion for exploration and collaboration, Campbell thrives in the conceptual phase of design, where curiosity sparks clarity and creativity emerge from connection. He views healthcare design as a civic responsibility, with every design decision holding the potential to uplift patients, empower staff, and strengthen communities.

"I believe great healthcare design begins with curiosity," said Campbell. "It's about asking the right questions, welcoming diverse perspectives, and shaping spaces that empower care. When we listen deeply and lead collaboratively, we create places that truly serve the people who need them most.

Campbell joins HED with an extensive background that includes work on nationally recognized healthcare projects such as the Philip & Susan Ragon Building at Massachusetts General Hospital, a new 1.2 million-square-foot hospital and campus project currently under construction in downtown Boston. His portfolio also features leadership roles on high-profile projects including the Ruth Bader Ginsburg Hospital in Brooklyn and the Rainier Square mixed-use development in Seattle.

As a registered architect in New York and North Carolina, and a member of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) and the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), Campbell brings both technical expertise and thoughtful leadership to HED's Boston healthcare practice. His collaborative approach aligns seamlessly with HED's integrated design philosophy, which unites architects, engineers, and planners into one team to deliver imaginative, future-ready solutions.

"Jacob's inquisitive and collaborative design approach reflects HED's mission to design impactful solutions for complex challenges," said Brett Paloutzian, Healthcare sector Business Leader at HED. "His leadership strengthens our positioning in Boston and reinforces our commitment to healthcare design." 

As HED advances its healthcare portfolio in Boston, Jacob's leadership will be central to shaping thoughtful, future-ready solutions that elevate patient experiences, support care teams, and strengthen communities.
