teradadesign architects: matsumoto kids dental clinic

naoki terada's architecture office designed this playful solution
for matsumoto children’s dental clinic in nerima, tokyo.

for this project teradadesign architects utilized wooden animals
that greet children when they arrive to the dentist, in the hope that
this will help them to have a relaxed visit.

several wooden games were also implemented into the waiting room walls
to occupy children. the layout means that the animals and trees are viewable
from the examination rooms so that the child still feels at ease.
