About the Project

Overview This project involves the relocation of "Kokoro to Karada no Genki Plaza" from Iidabashi to Jimbocho, with the aim of contributing to the health of the mind and body through medical checkups and medical examinations. The first floor is the outpatient treatment zone, and the second floor is the checkup and medical examination zone, providing a variety of comprehensive medical services.
Issues/Themes To provide an easy-to-understand, stress-free, safe, secure and comfortable space for patients with different purposes (medical checkups, medical examinations and outpatient treatment) and for patients with different attributes (male and female).
Space Solution/Realization Based on the concept of "biophilia," which states that "humans have an innate desire to connect with nature," we attempted to create a comfortable place where one can feel nature in a highly convenient location in the city center. Materials that evoke nature are scattered throughout the horizontally spreading space of approximately 2,000m2 in a well-balanced manner, allowing one to experience high-quality nature wherever one is.
Additionally, a theme color was assigned to each zone and linked to the materials of the spaces and signs, creating a facility that is easy to understand and use.
Design for Environment Healthy design: All materials are F☆☆☆☆ certified.
Universal design: A wheelchair-accessible washstand counter has been installed.
Safe design: The space and fixtures are designed to be free of dangerous protrusions.
