The latest project by Sicilian architects Puccio Collodoro Architetti is the Medical Office Ferro, located on Via Libertà in the heart of Palermo, just a stone’s throw away from the renowned Politeama Theatre.
The project involved a complete transformation of two properties, which were entirely gutted and merged to create a modern surgical outpatient clinic equipped with cutting-edge technologies.
The main goal of this renovation was to provide a welcoming and comfortable space for patients while maintaining a highly professional image for the medical practice.
The Medical Practice features a minimalist design with clean, defined lines, creating a modern and professional environment. The carefully selected materials were chosen to enhance the high medical professionalism while striking a balance between sterility and personality.
The reception area is defined by an imposing lacquered wooden desk, which continues along the wall, creating the acceptance area. The medical practice’s logo is strategically placed along the corridor leading to the various medical rooms.
The waiting area was meticulously designed with a clear change in flooring and wall finishes. Patients are welcomed by comfortable seating entirely made of natural oak.
The medical rooms, accessible through the distribution corridor, have been designed in compliance with all relevant regulations, using materials that meet the highest sanitary standards while creating a professional and welcoming atmosphere.
During the renovation process, several challenges were faced, particularly in reconfiguring spaces originally intended for residential use. Through careful planning, the two separate apartments were merged and redesigned to create a highly efficient and functional medical practice.
Furthermore, the healthcare sector demands careful integration of all necessary systems, complying with regulations, and meeting clients’ aesthetic preferences. The strategic use of false ceilings allowed for the concealment of complex systems, emphasizing the clean and elegant lines of the environment.
The Medical Practice Ferro exemplifies how intelligent renovation can transform existing spaces into a state-of-the-art medical facility, offering patients a welcoming and professional environment.
