Health
Where healthcare and retail intersect, our interior design expertise can help you balance clinical needs with commercial goals.
At Retail Experience Design, we firmly understand the complexity of designing for healthcare businesses – the need to balance delivering a positive patient experience with achieving your commercial goals.
Our experience spans a broad range of environments where health meets retail: from private medical clinics, dentists and pharmacies to optical and audiology clinics. Whether you’re a start-up or an established brand, you can trust us to take care of every aspect of your project – from the vital clinical details to the overall retail experience.
How we can help you
Transform a traditional or tired interior into a modern retail space.
Create a positive customer experience that reflects your brand values.
Maximise your space to create a highly efficient working environment for clinicians.
Putting your patients in safe hands
Creating a comfortable space where patients feel at ease builds invaluable confidence and trust. It’s something we’ve done time and time again. Often, as shown in this project for MyHealthcare, this starts by getting the right front-of-house experience.
Through the considered use of materials, fixtures and fittings, finishes, lighting, colours and furniture, we were able to create a premium healthcare space with a calm, warm welcoming feel. Our design puts patients at ease the moment they walk through the door, as well as reflecting the company’s brand values – ‘creating trust and excellence in healthcare’.
Integrating technology and specialist equipment
We’re very well acquainted with the complexities of clinical environments, not least the vast range of specialist equipment and technology required. Whether we’re incorporating optical testing technology, audiology testing booths or specialist pharmaceutical equipment, we use our ergonomic expertise to ensure your environment is efficient, safe and comfortable for your patients and your people.
As part of our layout for Vision + Eyecare, we designed a purpose-built testing and dispensing zone integrating advanced ZEISS optical technology. We were only able to do this successfully because our team understand clinical and optical environments from both a compliance and a technical perspective – from the start, we knew how patients and staff would need to interact with the space and the equipment.
The role of acoustics in healthcare spaces
Effectively managing acoustics is vital in sectors like audiology and optics. Good sound design not only increases patients’ privacy and comfort, but also improves the efficiency of the workspace for clinicians.
Managing noise control was crucial in helping to create a positive patient experience for House of Hearing. We installed soundproof pods to improve the working environment. We also treated the clinic walls with a range of specialist acoustic materials to absorb sound, minimise noise and prevent echoing. The materials made for a decorative design feature too, cleverly disguising some of the building’s inherent imperfections.
What our customers think…
“The design of our new clinic has established a new benchmark for Audiology and Aural care facilities in Europe.
Patients are now visiting us in numbers we could not have imagined or hoped for and we are delighted to welcome them to our world-class facility.
For our most ambitious project yet, it was crucial we worked with a design team who shared our vision and passion for creating an environment that clinicians would be proud to practice in and where patients would feel special and cared for.
Agreed deadlines were hit, budgets achieved, and designs delivered! And the patients and clinicians? Well, they love it!”
“We asked Retail Experience Design to conceptualise the interior space of our private integrated medical and dental clinic. The design team captured what we were looking to achieve with how we wanted to be perceived – the look, feel and atmosphere.
The results are exceptional – Retail Experience Design translated our vision and pushed boundaries. We’ll definitely be using Retail Experience again.”
“Retail Experience Design understood and listened to what I wanted to achieve with my new practice and incorporated my vision into an empty shell.
The result is an elevated practice design with an amazing retail space.
The team are really easy to work with and went above and beyond in bringing my new practice to life.”
“From our first meeting, Retail Experience Design completely understood what we wanted to achieve, where we were going as a business, and what we needed from our office design to get us there.
RED’s focus on defining our strategy and design brief made it easy for us to secure internal buy-in, showing our employees how the space would work for them as well as look.
The project has been exceptionally streamlined and the strategy, design and fit-out was delivered in just 12 weeks.
The team completely transformed this former restaurant, into an exceptional workspace – a true testament to RED’s stand-out design skills and the quality of experience across the whole team”
