Similar to the last article.

Dr. Keith Gibson DDS Clinic Renovation

Design by Fitzsimmons Architects and located at City, , with an  area of 884 sqm. Photos taken by Joseph Mills.

The renovated clinic uses the materials well to provide a clear contrast between the usage of spaces as displayed by the exterior with the addition of the cast in-situ concrete wall and steel pipes, which provides a clear indication of the entrance. The idea of a clear distinction of functions within the spaces extends further into the interior, with the yellow sliding doors in contrast with the walls. This philosophy is also displayed in the flooring between the main circulation and the other program spaces.
