Clineca Health Clinic

Istanbul, Acibadem, 2022


Clineca is located on the 12th floor of a 20-story mixed-use tower in the Asian side of Istanbul. The building primarily consists of office spaces that were delivered to tenants unfinished, with exposed concrete structure,

electrical and mechanical installations. The design of the functional clinic aimed to position patient areas, such as treatment rooms, physician's office, waiting area, and mixing area, to receive daylight from the façade,

while service areas like kitchen and wet rooms are concentrated in the core of the space. Double-glazed transparent partitions were used to allow daylight and circulation through the space without obstructing privacy,

with the option to introduce breakers between partitions as needed. To balance the dark tones and rough textures of the raw concrete ceiling and walls, light-colored furniture and finishes were employed, and plants

were generously placed throughout the space. A reflective flooring material was used to enable the spread of daylight and artificial lighting, and care was taken to create tactile qualities in the materials used.
