The Design

About Love Infirmary Hälsocenter Inredningsdesign

Love Infirmary är ett renoverat hälsocenter inuti en grundskola i Taipei, Taiwan. Den ursprungliga lokalen hade otillräcklig cirkulation, en mörk interiör och bristfällig förvaring för medicinsk utrustning. Den nya interiören följer ett biofiliskt förhållningssätt, med mer naturligt ljus, naturliga texturer och material samt mjuka, böjda ytor. Runda former definierar varje funktion, inklusive sköterskans kontor, sängar, ammningsrum och disk. De flesta ytor har en alkoholbeständig finish för enkel rengöring. Planlösningen ger eleverna en tydlig väg till behandling.
