About the Project
| Overview | This is a renovation project for the Health Management Center at Chibana Clinic, which provides a wide range of medical services from prevention to treatment and nursing care in Okinawa City. The entire fourth floor was expanded into a medical examination area, and the facility aims to contribute to the healthy life expectancy of local residents by achieving both functionality and design and creating a relaxing environment where patients can receive medical examinations. |
|---|---|
| Issues/Themes | To improve the attractiveness of the facility so that it will become a leading center in the health checkup industry in Okinawa Prefecture. To meet the growing demand in the region, we will develop a plan to be able to accommodate a larger number of patients. |
| Space Solution/Realization | The color scheme and lighting plan of the previous space, which had a tense, clinic-like feel, were revised and revamped to create a more calming atmosphere. Materials and motifs that evoke Okinawan culture familiar to local residents were incorporated throughout the space, creating a relaxing hotel-like space that people will want to visit again and again. In addition, areas were divided by function, and traffic flow was planned to prevent staff and patients from crossing paths. By ensuring appropriate waiting space and aisle widths in each area, we aimed to provide patients with a sense of security and safety, and to increase their sense of fulfillment and satisfaction when using the facility. |
| Design for Environment | Energy-saving design: Highly efficient lighting fixtures were used, and a lighting plan was created that makes use of natural light while adding contrast. |
