Smile Esthetics
Extension and Renovation of a dental clinic
The original dental office occupied 50 sqm, comprising a small reception area, an open operatory room, and a laboratory.
To accommodate the growing needs of the practice, the office expanded by adding a 30 sqm section. This addition created space for a second operatory room and a small seminar area. The compact layout and irregular shape of the floor plan required thoughtful architectural solutions to optimize the new space while enhancing the existing areas.
The waiting and reception area was enlarged and centrally positioned in the new layout. The two operatory rooms were placed on opposite sides of this central area. The original operatory room, along with the laboratory, remained on the right, while the new operatory room and a small office-seminar space were placed on the left.
Translucent glass partitions were used to separate the rooms, creating a balance between openness and privacy. The reception desk, a key feature of the redesign, stands out with its curved shape, adding dynamic movement and fluidity to the space.
The use of white throughout the design enhances the sense of openness and allows the space to transform with changes in natural and artificial lighting, shifting from warm to cool tones and from light to dark.
