The 5-story building, originally built in 1927, has an elongated and very narrow proportion (5.50 m wide by 30 m long), which is particularly difficult for a facility. It has a single facade to the street that the regulations obliged to preserve as well as the two inner courtyards of the plot of very small dimensions.

The central courtyard, measuring 2.50 x 3.60 m and formed by load-bearing walls, was transformed into an open glass box, from the ground to the top floor, visually communicating all areas. The dividing wall of the courtyard was closed with reflective glass, to obtain a nuanced “mirror” effect that multiplies the surface of the courtyard and softly reflects the images. The result allows the entire clinic to be perceived from any floor, creating visual diagonals and practically infinite perspectives of natural and artificial light.

The interiors were glazed with alternating interior venetian blinds and wood panes. The result seeks greater dynamism, avoiding the repetition of solutions and breaking the uniformity.

The ceiling plane is used as a substantial element to compress or expand spaces, taking it to very low levels in consultation rooms and to the maximum possible height in passage areas or large rooms, but always avoiding it to reach the party walls, in order to dissipate its limits.
