Year:
2008 – 2009

Location:
Hamburg, Germany

This dentistry practice is situated in a medical center in the St. Georg neighborhood near Hamburg’s city center. Free standing core elements divide the open space into different programmatic zones. These elements host independent workstations, an x-ray room and other medical facilities. One rotating element next to the waiting area transforms a closed examination room into a stage for a medical auditorium. Sloped tops of the cores contain indirect lighting with integrated luminous ceilings. The color scheme in shades of blue and brown moves freely from floor to wall to ceiling and gives the illusion of an endless spatial continuum.
