Healthcare Design – Core Solutions That Create Caring Spaces
T here’s more to healthcare, residential, and office space planning than simply picking a color scheme and nice furniture. In fact, healthcare design is utterly unique because it is as much about heart as it is about functionality.
Designing with Heart
Consider who occupies healthcare spaces: doctors, nurses, patients, visiting family, etc. It is a mixture of helpers and those that need to be helped. As a result, these spaces require a human touch, with a focus on care and comfort, not just literally, but also emotionally and psychologically.Whether it is a medical office or an assisted living community, we ensure our designs look and feel calming and warm while also being highly functional and efficient.
- Is there enough seating in the waiting room or lobby?
- Is the furniture comfortable and inviting?
- Can staff move easily between workstations and patients or visitors?
- Are the materials easy to clean?
- Is there enough room for someone in a wheelchair to maneuver?
In addition to normal necessary design considerations, these are the kinds of questions we keep in mind when creating this type of space.
