Case study
Our interior design project of an aesthetic polyclinic in Dubai is a testament to the excellent combination of people, technology and design. This modern polyclinic, while offering superior medical services, has redefined the concept of a clinical environment by prioritizing the psychological and emotional well-being of its patients through interior design.
The combination of technology, design and healthcare has always been a challenge. Bridging the gap between cold, sterile medical environments and the warm, welcoming spaces patients crave is no small feat. However, the Aesthetic Health Polyclinic in Dubai stands not only as an embodiment of this fusion, but also as a beacon, lighting the way for future healthcare facilities around the world.
In the heart of Dubai, a city known for its architectural marvels and technological advances, this avant-garde clinic is emerging, challenging and redefining traditional clinical paradigms. While many medical facilities are primarily designed with a focus on functionality, often at the expense of patient comfort and experience, this polyclinic flips the script. It serves as a vivid demonstration of how modern technology, intertwined with thoughtful design and a deep understanding of human psychology, can create an environment that meets both the medical and emotional needs of its patients.
In the modern age, technology has seamlessly woven itself into the fabric of our daily lives. It’s not just about gadgets and software anymore; it’s about creating experiences, improving interactions and making life more enjoyable. The Aesthetic Health Care Polyclinic in Dubai has wholeheartedly embraced this philosophy. It doesn’t just use technology; integrates it, making it an essential part of the patient’s journey from the moment they step through the door of the polyclinic. From automated check-in kiosks that minimize wait times and human contact to AI-driven diagnostic tools that offer precision and personalization in treatment plans; technology is used not as a mere tool, but as a partner in providing superior medical services.
One of the main goals when we talk about the design and creation of the inspiring space of this polyclinic was the emphasis on creating the most successful symbiosis between function and visual impression with an emphasis on putting the patient at the center of the interaction. Therefore, one of the key moments is ergonomics in the space through comfortable and modular furniture. Namely, the furniture, in addition to being visually appealing, is designed for ergonomic comfort, ensuring that patients and staff do not feel physical discomfort during their stay in the clinic.
The design of this polyclinic has achieved visual pleasure, and its design says more than is visible at first glance. The unobtrusive white marble floor is not only luxurious, but also practical. Such surfaces are easier to clean and maintain, which is essential for maintaining hygiene in a health environment and the atmosphere of a warmer home environment.
Research consistently shows the profound effect of lighting on mood. The combination of natural and artificial lighting of the clinic ensures that the space seems open, airy and pleasant. Natural light is known to boost mood and productivity, while soft artificial lights in the evening can induce a feeling of relaxation. Strategic placement of lights also ensures medical professionals have the lighting they need to perform procedures accurately.
As today’s patients expect contemporary and modern solutions, in addition to visible aesthetics, innovative technology has been successfully integrated into the clinic in order to maximally automate administrative processes and improve the patient experience. Automated check-in kiosks, virtual consultation booths and state-of-the-art diagnostic tools ensure that patients receive efficient care, reduce the need for the number of administrative staff and speed up complete diagnostics, which shortens patients’ time when they arrive at the polyclinic. Additionally, ambient noise systems have been installed that play soft, soothing sounds to ease anxiety, making the waiting period less stressful.
Gone are the days of waiting in long lines to fill out paperwork. This clinic has an automated check-in kiosk, strategically placed at the entrance, with the aim of speeding up the check-in process, allowing patients to enter their information, book appointments and even pay for services.
The Aesthetic Polyclinic in Dubai is more than just a medical facility. Together with our partners and designers, we looked to create an engineered environment where every design choice is rooted in an understanding of human psychology and the needs of patients and staff. Through a blend of color, space, light and technology, the clinic offers an experience that prioritizes mental well-being as much as physical health. We believe that this innovative approach to design with the connection of technology and users emphasizes the idea that treatment is holistic, and a positive environment can be a powerful catalyst on the way to the well-being of all patients and users.
