OCP - see clearly!
The new spaces of the OCP offer a modern environment for quality eye health care. "See clearly" is the default motto of the interior. Well-arranged, spacious interior with author's details and quality materials. Light and its refraction are the main idea. Rays in the form of lamps and graphics of glass stickers brighten up the entire center and stand out thanks to reflective materials such as corian and glass. Hygiene and safety requirements are met by various formats of tiles with a fine texture. Acoustical comfort is created by acoustic gypsum plasterboards in the ceiling and on the walls.
The main jewel is the crystal of the reception desk in the entrance hall. This is where the client's journey begins, following a clear axis throughout the visit. The sunlit first waiting room is hidden behind the crystal. The waiting room offers space for storing clothes in lockers, and you can make your wait more pleasant with the offer of drink and food vending machines. After that, the nurses accompany the client to the device room and perform the necessary examinations. Behind it is a quiet second waiting room with a direct connection to the twelve ambulances, which are visually marked with luminous numbers. In the back part is the entrance to the operating area with four high-quality operating theaters with facilities. The operating theaters are colored according to the visual style, dark blue, light blue, gray and apricot. The OCP is connected to an optician and a pharmacy, which is located in the entrance hall directly in front of even casual passers-by. The administrative part of the centre offers employees a pleasant place to work in comfortable offices. A spacious chill room is available for employees to prepare their own snacks and rest.
Each functional part of the clinic has its own color, based on the color scale of light refraction. The main areas for clients care are carried in shades of blue, which is the main color of the OCP. The color is used in different shades as an orientation thread, on furniture upholstery, walls and details.
The interior emphasizes a pleasant environment for all clients and employees. High-quality materials and the modern concept of the medical facility underline the high quality of care provided in the OCP.
