Authors’ Comment

The interior design of the Regina Maria private medical network's collection center is a deep artistic expression of Queen Maria's love for the sea, intertwined with the concept of fluidity. The initial design direction was defined as: the interior of the royal water mill; the layout of the designed space strikingly resembles the facade of a medieval water mill.

This minimalist design not only blends functionality with aesthetics but also creates an environment that reduces patient’s anxiety, transforming the medical experience into a pleasant and comforting one.

Fluidity, continuity, dynamism, and reflections are the central themes of this space, highlighted by the use of unique lighting and subtle curved inserts at the walls and ceilings. Light plays an essential role, with the ceiling grooves reminiscent of the movement of ocean waves. The alternation of different types of lighting not only adds an artistic dimension but also contributes to enhancing the well-being of patients, turning waiting into a moment of contemplation.

Another innovative element of the design is the floor treated with light beige micro-cement. This is intended to provide not only an elegant appearance but also to induce a sense of infinity from the spiral staircase. The smooth and uniform texture of the micro-cement contributes to the impression of continuity, making each step seem to traverse a vast and open landscape, similar to endless beaches.
