A cabinet in pandemic times:

The project tells an architectural narrative thread marked by delicate white undertones punctuated with warm golden accents and many textures, as is life: some leather, some glass, medical floors, some wood, some corian, some wall, some mirror.
The meticulous blend of function and utility, supported by design, provides a sleek and welcoming feel: a white clinic.
The existing partitioning has not been changed, the existing walls being prepared for the new finishes. The main idea was to create a unitary and sophisticated space that would meet the requirements of both the staff and the customers who will cross the threshold of the dermatology office. The interior finishes and textures of the furniture bodies have been designed to compliment each other.
The abundance of natural light is one of the most important aspects in creating a medical office. We adapted to the lighting requirements based on the existing structure of the space. The focus falls on the client's face, a fact for which the light intensity in the office is very important. Special lights with a temperature similar to natural light were used and these are not equally intense in all spaces. Due to the primacy of this aspect, lighting fixtures were chosen to create the sensation of natural light through their temperature. Instead, a warmer and more welcoming light was chosen in the waiting area.
The „hoc incipit liber” of this project represents the fusion between the spirit of the place, an international beneficiary and a construction made in 1960 that received a new life!
