An existing two-storey void on level 19 of the Paragon Medical Tower Block has been transformed into a landscaped urban oasis for Pacific Healthcare’s newest premises. Patients and visitors can relax in this business lounge environment, surf the internet and enjoy the excellent view of the Orchard Road skyline while waiting for their appointments with their doctors. Specialist clinics lie adjacent off this space, each with their own separate identities. Illuminated light boxes announce each clinic individually while maintaining a consistent overall corporate branding. Of interest is the iKids Paediatrics clinic with it’s modern imagery. It is playful and yet ‘retro’ at the same time. The cosmetic surgery houses separate intimate waiting spaces more like that of a spa. The CEO’s office and corporate admin facilities complete the ensemble.
