About the Project

Overview The lifestyle disease checkup floor on the second floor of the Uguisudani Health Center has been renovated. In line with the renewal of the management policy, the waiting area has been expanded and a women-only floor has been created. With a flow plan that allows for more efficient management, the floor has been reborn as one that can accommodate even more examinees than before.
Issues/Themes Along with the zoning change, we aimed to create a space that gives the impression of hotel-like hospitality rather than a medical facility.
Space Solution/Realization The time that examinees spend there undergoing health checkups is considered to be a "comfortable cruise voyage," and the interior has been designed to resemble a ship. The central reception and each testing space are likened to a cruise ship, with the surrounding waiting lobby and corridors positioned as the deck. In addition, we have planned a flow of movement from the waiting lobby to each testing space, just as you would enter a cruise ship's private rooms or private lounge from the deck. We have created a comfortable, open space that allows visitors to feel the sea breeze, so that they can relax and unwind as much as possible.
