Dental Clinic
Our proposal for the first Kenna dental clinic in Madrid draws inspiration from an "interior street."
Faced with the challenge of creating the image for a dental clinic, we propose an interior façade which contrasts with the traditional character of the Ciudad Lineal neighbourhood in Madrid.
In the spirit of Josef Albers' work "Luminous Day," the proposal shapes an interior façade that differs from the external surroundings, allowing glimpses of the inner life of the clinic in a controlled manner. To highlight this contrast, stainless steel was chosen as the primary material for this façade.
This façade redefines the space and its dristribution, creating a new concept of "inside and outside" - a new inner street. This pathway allows the clinic’s internal activity to be observed from the outside, inviting passersby to enter. The reflections from the stainless steel incorporate the exterior vegetation and reflect sunlight, enlivening the new interior street.
The modulation of this new façade includes opaque, translucent, and transparent elements, according to the level of privacy required in each area. With this, transparent glass makes the entrance to the waiting room, while a wooden door leads to the clinic rooms.
At the end of the interior street, around a small waiting area, a point of colour highlights the entrance to the X-ray room and the restroom. Next to this landmark, a door leads to the private staff area.
