Berlin, 2017

The brief was to create a dental practice with the look and feel of an art gallery in Berlin’s Zentrum West. This BATEK ARCHITEKTEN design concept is clear and minimalist, with a predominantly white theme. In the reception area tall, yellow lacquered, fitted storage panelling surrounds the central, brushed aluminium desk. The bold yellow colours and metal finish of the desk captivate the patients as they enter the space. Behind an illuminated, yellow lacquered partition is the waiting area, contrasting with its cosier style and upholstered wooden furniture. Past a sideboard clad in deep violet fabric a pure white corridor leads to the treatment rooms, also in pure white, and with Fenix nanomaterial working areas and surfaces. The ceiling-high glass doors with their black metal frame work in exciting synergy with the black-framed artworks on the wall. Here, another floor to ceiling, yellow lacquered cupboard continues the theme and identity of the space, providing continuity and depth.
