"Design a livable building that contributes to the well-being of people and their recovery." That was the request from Dimence for the Westerdok building, a mental health institution providing both outpatient and inpatient care. We translated the request into a design that offers variation in the experience of spaces, with as many natural materials and clear colors as possible: welcoming, customer-friendly, and modern. Specifically for this interior, over 100 illustrations have been developed to showcase what's happening in the building. They tell the story of the human psyche and personalize the building.
