The architects will work as part of lead consultant Currie & Brown's team on the development of a new 1109-bed, adult acute hospital together with a major laboratory development on the existing Southern General Hospital Site.
The scheme, due for completion in 2014, also includes a new, 240-bed children's hospital and maternity unit.

Robert Calderwood, NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde’s Chief Executive said: "As the most ambitious NHS building project ever undertaken in Scotland, not only will many thousands of patients and staff benefit from the development but given the current economic downturn the timing of this project could not be better - it will undoubtedly give the construction industry and the wider local economy an enormous boost."
Lorraine Robertson, regional director of HLM, said: "We are delighted to be a part of such a significant development in Scotland. As one of the largest practices in Scotland, and using the wealth of health sector experience we have gathered working across the UK, we will ensure that this major project meets the requirements of the staff, patients and visitors to South Glasgow Hospital and is of the highest quality."
