This is clash of rectilinear, rational formation with organic nicety of foreign, rounded ‘bodies’. Each object is made by a different material – one in raw, grey concrete; the other in a warm wood; the third covered with green grass. Looking from the outside oval objects make an impression as they support all floors of the 6-levels building.

Lamps sunken in the ceiling give the impression of scattered, light discuses or full moons. All look like they would try to escape from the space – scamper off into direction of outdoor.

Each also has a different character, surprising by variety of geometric patterns and dynamic colours on ceilings and walls. Ipso facto the spirit of the clinic differs significantly from the stressful and overwhelming hospital aesthetic.

Thus, multitude of the wall’s and floor’s finishes are rounded; avoiding sharp details and materials of glass and metal; finish of details or pieces of furniture in organic shapes, in soft materials, friendly to the touch; the colours above standard, rich, various, friendly and optimistic.
