The project concerns the renovation and expansion of an existing dental clinic, allowing for the creation of two treatment rooms instead of one, in order to accommodate a higher number of patients.
The central design concept was to create a space that conveys a sense of cleanliness while simultaneously breaking away from the standardization of medical interiors, acknowledging that contemporary medical practice should evolve in parallel with architecture.
The clinic includes a spacious waiting area, whose central element is an oak table that extends conceptually into the office space, transforming into a custom workstation for the practitioner. Vertical wooden elements frame the waiting area, with the wooden slats playing a key role, as their arrangement subtly guides patients towards the treatment rooms.
The office is enclosed with glass, featuring a custom design of delicate vertical lines that ensure privacy while allowing controlled beams of light to enter, creating the impression of a space in constant transformation throughout the day.
Adjacent to the office is the entrance to Treatment Room 2, which is also internally connected to Treatment Room 1 via a sliding door. Treatment Room 1, which constitutes the new spatial addition, features a bespoke construction of vertical wooden slats extending onto the ceiling, with dimmable LED strips integrated between them at varying heights. This design significantly enhances the patient experience, particularly for those positioned facing the ceiling during treatment.
The materials and color palette used throughout the clinic, including grey floor tiles and white wall finishes, play a fundamental role in reflecting light continuously, resulting in a timeless environment that emphasizes cleanliness and clarity.
