Osteopathic Surgery in Mantua, Italy by Archiplan Studio

The senses are our window on the world.

The project aims to represent the character of a ritual place, through the introduction of a few elementary signs.

The space is divided into two distinct areas, the waiting area and the operating area, separated by a large door that emphasizes the theme of the threshold.

The door is partly openable to balance and partly sliding, and allows you to modulate the large room to adapt it to specific occasions.

The volume has been kept at double height to emphasize the spirituality of the activities that take place there; the perimeter walls partly maintain the rough cement finish of the building site and in part are clad in concrete panels with the exposed rear face, to accentuate the character of rigor, and simplicity.

The project proposes a hypnotic experience. A continuous drop falls from the ceiling onto a floor-level grating and marks the passing of time in a slowed-down dimension.

Of the triangular wooden slats hanging from the ceiling, they introduce light hierarchies into the subdivision of the space, and filter the external light.
