Denthill Polyclinic is a dental health center located in Maslak, one of the busiest areas of Istanbul. Spread over an area of 680 m²,the clinic has a comprehensive program including 9 dental operation rooms, 1VIP examination room, a general waiting area, a VIP waiting area and various service units such as sterilisation, laboratory. The project is designed as the second branch of the brand and is handled with a new and modern perspective, maintaining the existing brand's image and concept.

The black-white and gold color palette of the brand's corporate identity was the starting point for the designers. While the projectadopts a minimalist and monochrome design approach in general, the "golden box" placed at the heart of the project adds dynamism to contrast this calmness. Located in the center of the space, this mass reinforces the identity of the brand and at the same time offers an iconic appearance that supports the first impression.

In the project, the concept of contrast appears in various forms. The natural harmony of black and white is supported by subtly combineddetails. The use of a monochrome attitude also emphasizes the sterile feeling of the clinic.

The project lines have an orthogonal planning and offer a sharp and distinct design both horizontally and vertically. Horizontal and vertical movements boost this sharpness with materials, details and colors.With the effective use of artificial light, the masses are occasionally separated from the ceiling and floor, bringing out the play of masses.

The clinic rooms are strategically placed in order to beperceived effectively from the busy street and its façade. This placement allows the clinic to be recognized from the outside; it supports the brand's memorability by creating a showcase effect and creates an inviting impression of the space. Lighting scenarios specially designed for the evening hours significantly elevate the clinic and increase the attractiveness of the space. The parallel trace and continuity between the floor and ceiling in the waiting area, where the first interaction with the clinic takesplace, enhances the perception of depth; at the same time, these lines provide a natural orientation from the counter to the waiting areas. Clinic rooms aredesigned to serve minimalist and functional purposes in the same line. Digital screens, clinic furniture designed for the comfortable use of doctors and assistants, a multi-purpose seating and hanging unit for the visitors all continue the simple language of the clinic.
