Inspiring interior design solutions for care
Sustainable and inclusive environments for quality of life.
Spaces for different activities
The fact that the physical environment has a major impact on safety, well-being and quality of life is particularly evident in healthcare spaces. Over the course of a day, a variety of activities take place, with each space requiring supportive interior design to contribute to an attractive and functional operation. Devoting time and engagement at the beginning of a project enables you to create an interior design solution that facilitates, stimulates, invites and promotes wellbeing and creates a sense of security. For both staff, care recipients and relatives.
Get inspired by examples of different spaces, all based on a set of values founded on empathy, understanding and respect. We’re here to help you, whatever your starting point – from needs analysis and interior design solution to delivery and follow-up.
Entrance
The first impression of a care environment comes from the entrance. Here, the interior design makes everyone feel welcome and included, while also reflecting the organisation’s brand, image and values. It’s a place where relatives, care recipients and staff can sit down and wait, meet and socialise. The space is easy to navigate and ideally includes elements that awaken the senses, for example through smell, visual impressions or sound.

It’s a good idea to supplement the space with positive distractions that can shift thoughts away from negative impressions, for example through smell, visual impressions or sound.
