About Love Infirmary 保健室のインテリアデザイン
「Love Infirmary（ラブ・インファーマリー）」は、台湾・台北市の小学校内にある保健室を改修したプロジェクトである。既存の空間は動線が十分に確保されておらず、室内は暗く、医療器具の収納も不足していた。新しいインテリアはバイオフィリックなアプローチに基づき、自然光を多く取り入れ、自然素材や自然な質感、そして滑らかな曲面を用いている。円形のフォルムが、養護教諭の執務スペース、ベッド、授乳室、カウンターといった各機能を明確に区分している。ほとんどの表面にはアルコールに強い仕上げを施し、清掃を容易にした。この平面計画により、児童は治療までの動線を迷うことなくたどることができる。
