Renovated to a bright, warm and comfortable space
Photography: RINO KOJIMA (This is the Lights.)
Overview | We renovated the entrance of Fuchinobe General Hospital, a core medical institution in Sagamihara City. We renovated the entrance, which is the face of the hospital, as well as the waiting space for the reception and accounting area and the open stairwell. We designed it to be a comfortable place to relax, while incorporating easy-to-understand signs and a functional counter, creating a pleasant environment for all users, including patients, visitors and staff. |

Issues/Themes | The exterior, which is the face of the hospital, will be designed to be brighter and more welcoming. The goal was to make the reception and accounting areas, where patients spend a lot of time, more comfortable spaces and increase the added value of the hospital. |
Space Solution/Realization | The exterior was designed with blinds and indirect lighting visible through the windows, allowing the warm interior space to be seen from the outside, creating an exterior look that gives a brighter impression than the previous entrance. From the reception/cash register to the staircase area, the interior design is based on wood materials and indirect lighting, and organic curved lines are incorporated as graphics into the existing space, which is composed of straight lines. The space has been renovated to create a familiar place where users can feel calm and relaxed. |
Design for Environment | Universal design: Due to the nature of a hospital being a facility used by a wide range of people, we designed the space to be easy for anyone to use, and the signs to be easy for anyone to understand. |
