Contemporary dental office in the city center of the Ukrainian capital. The office is divided into two parts. One is an the entrance area with the reception, wc, staff room and big waiting room, which serves as a lecture space. And the other one - the actual dental office with three separate cabinets, sterilization room and small office space for the lead doctor, which can be used as a place for rest for the patients as well.

To accommodate lecture hall in the waiting room we ve added huge tv screen and made the furniture mobile and easily re-arrangeble. Heavy curtains also help to create educational atmosphere if needed.

Most materials here are exceptionally durable and easy to clean. Yet the whole feeling of a clinic is completely eliminated. Tinted mirrors, plenty of glass, brass elements, wooden and marble textures make a rich palette and give an impression of a law firm rather then the dental clinic. And this was the main intention of the chief doctor: to create friendly and stylish environment which doesn't terrify but rather entertain.

Sterilization room has an inventive color code for the furniture: shelves with red RGB LED light for the dirty instruments, blue - for the clean and sterilized ones. When mixed they create a beautiful play of light and tints on violet, which gives the whole area quite intriguing and futuristic vibe.
