Named one of the Best Doctors by New York Magazine and Newsday, our client decided to transition from a group practice to his own branded eye care approach and engaged JRS to infuse functionality and originality in the design of this new ophthalmic center. Sitting down to understand the doctor’s vision for the practice, tasks to be carried out by staff and challenges posed by the site, empowered our team to deliver space that is efficient and memorable. Sensitive to the travel needs of his patients, the client opted to lease in an office building located close to his patient base. While the venue was ideal, the available space was smaller than desired, requiring our designers to maximize a constricted setting. Resulting design features include primary and intermediate waiting areas to distribute progressing patients; custom designed exam room furniture for expanded ease of motion in smaller layouts; reduced physical file space utilizing “cloud” electronic record storage.
A vibrant color palette, inspired by American-abstract artist Harold Krisel – our client’s father-in-law - helped us to elevate the patient experience. Original works of Krisel’s art have been installed throughout the facility, and select color walls in each exam room play off the artwork with a visual pop. Blue LED cove lighting integrated into the architecture adds to the ambience while sensors in each exam room automatically adjust lighting as instruments are picked up and used. Creative planning allowed our client’s full program to be accommodated with generous welcome / waiting areas, 6 exam rooms, 2 doctor’s offices, 2 nurse’s stations, business/administrative offices and staff lounge. We also created a testing area to house the practice’s high-tech diagnostic scanners and lasers. Outstanding for its efficient and entertaining design, this center has been attracting and retaining patients and professional staff alike.
