Description
The Integrated Psychiatry Winterthur (ipw) is expanding its range of treatment options to include a day clinic. We at Studio Archimed were responsible for planning and implementing the additional rooms, such as classrooms and recreation rooms. The aim of the new day clinic is to provide adolescents and young adults with further stabilization and support in their outpatient routine after acute inpatient treatment. Our task was to plan, materialize and implement the specified rooms and functions. It was important to harmonize sound, electrical connections, lighting and color concept.
Particularities
We implemented the colour concept for the rooms in cooperation with colour consultant Eva Leuba. The existing skylights give the introverted corridor a connection to the outside area.
