We redesigned the interiors of a working dental clinic in Buda without removing any walls. We gave the waiting room stucco-framed wall panels and a marble-effect ceramic panel, and the treatment rooms light stone worktops and fronts with no visible edge banding.
The design covered the entrance, the waiting room with reception, the washroom and the three treatment rooms.
We planned the site survey to take about half an hour so that it would not hold up the doctors' work.
We presented the design to the owners with a video walkthrough and a written summary, then refined it based on their feedback.
We prepared a detailed joinery specification for the bespoke furniture. For the painting and stucco work we handed over the full documentation, including the visualisations and the survey photos.
On the long wall of the waiting room we designed stucco-framed wall panels with a marble-effect ceramic wall panel between them. Vertical lights cast grazing light across the wall panels beside it.
For the wall lights we chose a continuous LED strip instead of point light sources, so the light is even and subdued. We also made sure that insects cannot collect inside the fittings. The existing teal stucco sections of the dado are kept and repainted.
The ceramic panel has the same stucco frame as the wall panels beside it.
The narrow bronze fittings sit in the middle of the wall panels, inside the stucco frames.
The deep teal dado runs the full length beneath the wall panels, with the waiting room chairs in front of it.
The reception desk at the end of the waiting room has a curved white front, with a dark wood counter section running along the top.
We raised the reception desk to give the receptionists some privacy. We produced a separate joinery drawing and materials specification for it.
For its worktop we chose a darker stone than for the light worktops in the treatment rooms.
The clinic asked for all three. The display cabinet holds mouthwash and toothbrushes.
For the entrance hall we designed wall panels upholstered in a water-repellent fabric in the same shade as the waiting room chairs.
The narrow display cabinet is glazed on two sides. Its frame is bronze, like the wall lights in the waiting room.
The existing dental units and their chairs stay where they are. In two of the treatment rooms the cabinet carcasses are also kept; in these, the worktops, wall surfaces and lights are renewed.
For the treatment rooms the clinic asked for wall panels instead of metro tiles, and taller storage, reaching up to the ceiling where possible, instead of chests of drawers.
On the treatment room wall we designed a stucco-framed wall panel similar to those in the waiting room, with a teal dado running beneath it here as well. Light comes from a concealed strip around the edge of the ceiling and a ring-shaped pendant in the middle.
The fronts in the treatment rooms have zero-joint edging or a painted finish, with no visible edge banding, so there is nowhere for dirt to settle.
In the treatment rooms the worktops, splashbacks and window sills are made of light sintered stone.
Similar rings light the other treatment rooms, the waiting room and the entrance hall.
We designed an open dark wood shelf for the corner of the worktop.
The splashback runs the full length of the worktop, along both walls.
The drawers are opened using the horizontal grip profile between the fronts.
Everyday equipment can be put away in the cabinets under the worktop. Beside the chair we designed a low cabinet for bags and paperwork.
For the mandatory hygiene notices we designed wooden frames sized to the sheets. We chose stainless steel paper towel and soap dispensers.
The greenery consists of artificial plants, itemised in a list prepared for the design.
The large bins stay because of the amount of waste generated.
In the waiting room the defining surfaces are the marble-effect ceramic and the teal dado; in the treatment rooms, the light stone and the painted fronts. Bronze recurs in the wall lights, the rims of the pendant lights and the frame of the display cabinet.
The walls and the dental units stay where they are. The stucco-framed wall panels and the teal dado appear in both the waiting room and the treatment rooms and tie the clinic's spaces together.
