About Contour Of Circle Disseny Interior de Clínica de Medicina Estètica
Contour of Circle és una clínica de medicina estètica situada a la planta baixa d'un edifici residencial a Tainan, Taiwan. L'interior ocupa 518 metres quadrats i està configurat per arcs, simetria i càlids tons de te amb llet inspirats en les corbes del cos humà. El taulell de recepció recorda un capoll de flor, i els motius circulars travessen el sostre i els buits oberts. Les parets amb textura de marbre revesteixen la caixa d'escala, mentre que la segona planta utilitza paviment de fusta i vidre ratllat translúcid per preservar la privacitat. El metall, el vidre, la fusta i la pintura artística s'utilitzen a tot l'espai.

- Design Challenge
- Utilizing two narrow voids within the site, the arc continuously repeats and leaps in the vertical space, creating an interesting and dynamic atmosphere in the reception hall and the seating area on the second floor. This design approach adds a sense of playfulness to the confined space, avoiding a sense of limitation. Additionally, this technique is employed to showcase the design's arc through floor-to-ceiling windows in the voids, compensating for the inability to modify the external facade.
- Research
- The study focuses on the harmonious combination of circular and linear geometric shapes, incorporating arcs, organic lines, and hues resembling human skin tones in the spatial design. This aims to instill a sense of calmness within individuals in the space and alleviate the tension associated with medical procedures. Furthermore, a deep understanding of the distinctions between medical aesthetics clinics and other healthcare or commercial spaces is undertaken. This includes analyzing the internal staff's flow, customer behavior, and circulation, while also recognizing the necessity to appropriately avoid sightline intersections.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by human body curves and natural elements in biomimicry. Firstly, the body's continuity and diversity emerge from countless continuous curves forming irregular surfaces, with significant focus on their intersectional continuity. Smooth, rounded details enhance the aesthetic connection. Secondly, there's symmetry ingrained in human genetics, suggesting health and vitality. Lastly, harmony in proportionate aesthetic qualities makes human body curves more beautiful than any geometric form.
- Project Duration
- Located in Tainan, Taiwan, this project is started in April 2023 and completed in November 2023.
- Operation Flow
- The lobby, considering the discreet nature of the clinic's services, uses curved surfaces and lines on the
facade to create a spacious feel while also providing privacy between clients. The reception desk,
resembling a flower bud, echoes the beauty of human curves, imparting a soft and elegant ambiance.
Circular motifs on the ceiling span across the ceiling and void areas, symbolizing the innate beauty and the
assistance of medical aesthetics, forming a perfect and complete circle.
Ascending through the stairwell adorned with marble-textured main walls, the atmosphere transitions upon
reaching the second floor with a shift to warm, fishbone-patterned wooden flooring, and the introduction of
translucent striped glass, expanding the space while maintaining privacy and functional zoning.
The recurring and overlapping arc shapes and symmetrical forms throughout the design pay homage to the
beauty of human body curves. Neutral, warm, milky tea tones soften the clinical impression, while the
abundance of curves in the space reflects the medical aesthetic's commitment to proportionate lines,
showcasing an unwavering pursuit of beauty and care for patients. - Team Members
