G Clinic 7F Features Contemporary Partitions for Patient Privacy

— August 12, 2012 — Art & Design
Too often, waiting rooms are forgotten areas that stink of the disinterest of commercial designers. The G Clinic 7F commission is quite different, with its creators having gone above and beyond expectations to deliver something of the caliber of a chic urban cafe.

This is a clinical practice that specializes in men's treatments for hair removal and hair restoration. The appointments and procedures that occur here aren't as compromising as those that take place in other medical offices, yet the subject causes many clients embarrassment.

The programmatic solution put forth by Arimoto Yushiro and KORI Architecture integrated a system of modern perforated room dividers. They seemingly shrink the size of the waiting space to improve mental comfort. Tokyo's G Clinic 7F sets up few scenarios in which patients may accidentally make eye contact.
Trend Themes
1. Patient Privacy Partitions - Modern perforated room dividers are being integrated into clinical practices to improve mental comfort and provide greater privacy to patients.
2. Chic Medical Office Design - Designers are rethinking the clinical aesthetic to create waiting areas that rival chic urban cafes, enhancing the overall patient experience.
3. Innovative Waiting Room Solutions - Waiting rooms are being reimagined to improve mental comfort and address embarrassment in patients undergoing sensitive treatments.
Industry Implications
1. Healthcare - The healthcare industry is increasingly adopting innovative design solutions to enhance patient comfort and experience.
2. Interior Design - Interior designers have an opportunity to rethink traditional commercial design and create unique, modern spaces tailored to specific industries and customer needs.
3. Wellness and Beauty - Wellness and beauty businesses that offer sensitive services, such as hair removal and restoration, can benefit from incorporating patient privacy partitions to enhance client comfort and reduce embarrassment.
