Sugarbug Pediatric Dental Office

Sugarbug is a vibrant pediatric dental practice. This project focuses on enabling the architecture of the space to contribute directly to the client’s brand identity. The finished product blends all the aspects dental office through a well thought out and comprehensively designed architectural, functional, informational and graphical experience. The space contains a feast of colliding forms and surfaces that are meant to dazzle and engage the patients. Upon entry into the office one is deposited into a reception area that also doubles as a play area for the patients. Each operatory has interesting finishes, light and sound controls. A place for each parent was provided to allow them to sit, relax and observe nearby. The space is designed to meet all the needs of a modern dental practice while creating an environment that is inviting, comfortable and stimulating for children, parents and the dental office staff. The interior architecture of the new space allows for a discrete separation between the experience of the patients and the busy dental staff. Like a theatrical performance, the patient’s experience is carefully orchestrated by a host of “behind the curtain” activities that enable the staff to function efficiently and unnoticed.
