Fast Company: The future of healthcare is social
This great article from Fast Company is a well crafted message that reinforces the trends Clockwork is facilitating in the built environment. http://www.fastcompany.com/future-of-health-care Two recent projects capture this social networking that happens online and offline.
Exclusive MD, created by Dr. Michael Catausan http://www.exclusive-md.com/ is revolutionizing the troubled healthcare system. The spa-like boutique Clockwork created for his medical practice removes the anxiety associated with a visit to the doctor. Warm inviting materials and lighting create a pleasant environment and a variety of lounges make each visit a new experience.
SeniorCare, created by Jerry Pullins http://www.seniorcarehomesmidwest.com/ is sending the world of assisted living decades ahead. Clockwork has worked closely with the team at SeniorCare on multiple locations to create sustainable, carefully arranged living and social spaces that blur the distinction between indoor and outdoor spaces. Below is an excerpt from their website.
Our Homes
“You won’t be able to find a SeniorCare home by signs or large parking lots. Each home is carefully chosen and tucked beside real neighbors with secure patios and comfortable living spaces. The family atmosphere at a SeniorCare home can be observed as residents and Care Specialists help garden, stroll around the walking path or bake a resident’s favorite homemade recipe. Guests are considered family and find it easy to participate in daily life at a SeniorCare home.”
Clockwork is proud to be at the leading edge, and play a key role in improving peoples lives through the power of insightful design.
