Few architects have spent their entire career inside veterinary environments. Bryan King has. As Therian's General Manager and Lead Architect, Bryan brings over 20 years dedicated exclusively to designing veterinary hospitals, clinics, shelters and training facilities across Australia, New Zealand, the US and Canada. A registered architect in Australia, New Zealand and the USA (RAIA), his expertise spans planning, right-sizing, infection control, acoustic design and future-proofing facilities to meet long-term clinical demands. At Vet Expo 2026, Bryan will share how early engagement with a specialist veterinary architect can help practices avoid costly pitfalls, align design with clinical and operational needs, and create spaces that deliver lasting value for staff, patients and the business.

Day 2 @ 14:00

From chaos to flow: Designing a practice that actually works

Veterinary teams are under increasing pressure to do more with the time, space and resources they already have. While staffing challenges are often front of mind, many daily frustrations inside a practice are also shaped by how the environment functions, from layout and equipment placement through to treatment flow, ICU access, storage, inventory movement and manual processes.

In this session, Bryan King explores how performance can be improved by taking a systems-led approach to veterinary practice design. By looking at how space, equipment and workflow work together, practices can identify where time and energy are being lost, reduce bottlenecks and create calmer, more efficient clinical environments.

Attendees will gain practical insight into how thoughtful design and operational planning can improve flow, support team wellbeing, make better use of existing resources and create stronger outcomes for staff, clients and patients.
