The laminate is further used on fitted


cabinets within the treatment rooms and the integrated plumbing system units that house the washbasins in consulting and chemotherapy rooms.


Full of colour Bright yellow, orange and navy blue accents against warm shades of grey bring the entrance hall to life. And carpeted areas provide a warm,


homely environment to relax in; while treatment and consulting rooms have a warm and friendly feel. For example, in the chemotherapy


treatment rooms there are padded, upholstered headboards and diffused lighting to soften the otherwise- clinical spaces. A bespoke wallpaper with a


simple stylised allium in subtle warm colour tones provides an uplifting feature to the walls, helping to divert attention from the medical equipment in the rooms. And, in the CT scanning room, where


patients are lying down for some time, an image of the sky and blossom is incorporated into the ceiling panels. The open-plan head office has the same welcoming and informal feel for


staff, with an irregular timber and moss feature wall, warm lighting, and pale wood furniture. The client was very keen to incorporate


greenery into the environment and peace lilies sit within built-in planters on top of the storage units, which also help to divide the space.


High-end design The nine meeting rooms of varying sizes, which can accommodate from 2- 18 people, are named after medical pioneers chosen by the client. And glazed partitions allow natural light into the rooms. Ward Robinson design consultant,


Simon Grundy, said of the project: “During the briefing process it became apparent that GenesisCare was looking for a design with more personality than is often associated with high-end clinical and treatment facilities and we were keen to follow through with a boutique hotel-like concept.” Alex Woods, GenesisCare centre


leader at Windsor, added: “For patients the interior is definitely part of why they choose GenesisCare. I have had one patient tell us it’s like going to a spa. They really love it.”

And Sharon Benson, GenesisCare


project manager, said: “The head office interior is often commented on with its fresh, calm and modern feel, reflecting the culture of GenesisCare, which has been a great recruitment tool. “Staff reaction to our activity-based


working arrangements, several choices of meeting rooms, and collaborative spaces has been extremely positive. “Our team love the large kitchen and


café-style seating is perfect for staff meetings held during lunchtime, creating a more-relaxed, fun way to engage.”
