Partners of orthodontists vision was to create a new office that felt like a home, both for themselves and their patients. They firmly believed that a comfortable environment would bring a sense of ease to patients before their operations.

To achieve the desired "feel-at-home" ambiance, one of our main objectives was to establish a welcoming sense of arrival. We were fortunate to have a large lobby space to work with, which allowed us to implement zoning and visual separation. The expansive area was divided into three distinct zones: arrival, wait, and relax. To visually differentiate these areas, we incorporated a variety of materials throughout the space, making it easy for users to naturally distinguish the different purposes of each zone. Adding to the project's unique character, our clients were whiskey enthusiasts who enjoyed bonding in lounges after work hours. They expressed their desire for a speakeasy to be included within the office, which we enthusiastically embraced. This surprise element became a delightful and fun addition to the overall design, providing a hidden retreat for the partners and their guests.

Through our thoughtful approach, we successfully created an environment that not only met the professional needs of the orthodontists but also fostered a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere for their patients. This design promotes a sense of tranquility and relaxation, helping patients feel at ease before their operations.
