Beyond Radiology, Silverdale
Beyond Radiology is a New Zealand-owned, radiologist-led practice with a focus on providing first-class patient care. Their new practice in Silverdale is the third of a nationwide roll-out for the radiology group, the design of which is led by MA Studio. The interior of their Silverdale practice has set a precedent for style and design, with a warm and inviting environment that moves away from the traditional sterile medical atmosphere.
Jacobsen consulted with the designers at MA Studio to explore various timber products for the flooring. After careful consideration, they chose Aspecta Elemental XL LVT, a timber-look product that is more durable and hardwearing in the long run while offering the same visually appealing look as real timber products. This cost-effective option perfectly complements the luxurious interior aesthetic, which includes textured carpeted areas, timber panelling, and brass accents. The resulting timber-look flooring will serve as a consistent element and the foundation of the interior design for Beyond Radiology practices nationwide.
Carpets Inter Breathe Inhale carpet tile was selected for the Silverdale practice, featured in grey hues for underfoot comfort, sound absorption and a visually creative texture.
Radiology and server rooms feature Tarkett’s reliable Eclipse Premium Spirit vinyl with PUR-reinforced surface treatment which offers improved protection and easier maintenance. In wet areas, Primo Safe T vinyl provides a secure grip for bare feet, reducing the risk of slipping.
The radiology rooms are equipped with state-of-the-art imaging equipment and feature nature-themed lightboxes on the ceiling, which display calming imagery and add visual interest to the space. These biophilic elements, combined with timber accents and textures, work together to create a more homely and relaxing environment.
