Nowadays, how to layout hospital furniture is one of the hottest topics in the construction industry. The layout of furniture in hospitals also requires certain skills and methods. The layout design of hospital furniture should be based on the movement patterns and dimensions of various parts of the human body during the diagnosis and treatment process. The size, placement, and structure of furniture should meet both aesthetic and ergonomic requirements to facilitate patient activities. So, how should we design the layout of hospital furniture? Below, Bosheng will share his relevant experience.

Hospital furniture layout design concept:

1. Divide indoor areas and clarify zoning functions

When designing the layout of hospital furniture, the first step is to divide the indoor functions, especially for different categories of medical spaces with different requirements for medical professional functions in the indoor zoning. Because proper spatial zoning can make furniture allocation more clear and simple, not only beneficial for the hygiene and safety of the diagnosis and treatment process, but also help improve the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment work. Therefore, indoor functional zones in hospitals need to include clean areas, contaminated areas, consultation areas, examination areas, treatment areas, dispensing areas, medical and nursing areas, patient areas, waiting areas, storage areas, office areas, etc.

2. Determine the hospital space and activity area for the flow line

After the indoor zoning is completed, a clear spatial flow can be formed. Fixed items such as furniture cannot be arranged in the flow area, otherwise it will hinder the diagnosis and treatment behavior. Therefore, after the indoor zoning is completed, the indoor flow area and other activity spaces should be excluded, and the home county distribution area should be further integrated.

3. Determine the scale layout based on the partitioned furniture

As long as the above three steps are completed, the spatial planning of furniture in indoor spaces can be revealed, such as hospital and university nurse stations, treatment areas, consultation areas, etc. Then, based on the spatial scale of each function, the basic scale of the corresponding furniture can be determined. According to the spatial relationship between the area, walls, hospital equipment, and hospital electrical power supply, the layout form of furniture can be basically determined.

Based on actual needs, create layout drawings

The layout and usability of hospital furniture are crucial, as they directly affect the safety, efficiency, and humanized experience of the hospital's diagnosis and treatment process. As a professional medical furniture designer, one needs to have high professional ethics. Not only should one understand the specific usage needs of hospital furniture in various functional departments, but also be familiar with the furniture industry, master profound furniture professional knowledge and theory, have a full understanding of the functions, specifications, materials, processes, shapes, colors, aesthetics, etc. of various furniture, and be able to apply them accurately and flexibly.

The expression form of hospital furniture design:

1. Perfect combination of material matching

When designing, many factors such as practicality, environment, materials, structure, space, craftsmanship, shape, decoration, etc. need to be considered. In terms of design, it is necessary to achieve coordination with the hospital's decoration style and color tone. It is also necessary to be able to engage in dialogue with the surrounding environment, and the two expressions should be similar, natural, and integrated. According to different departments, different materials and processes can be selected to achieve multifunctional hospital furniture, while maintaining the original harmony of each material or component before functional differentiation. The hospital furniture is integrated into the hospital space environment building, achieving a perfect combination of hospital integrated furniture.

2. The structural layout relies on each other

The integrated design of hospital furniture emphasizes the dialectical unity of structure, which means that each component retains its own visual personality while relying on adjacent components, and is reflected through architectural layout, spatial segmentation, and orientation adjustment. When connecting independent components, it is necessary to find a connecting point so that they can purposefully connect and rely on each other. This connection is the most important characteristic of hospital furniture or soft furnishings.

3. Visual effects of hospital space

The integrated design of hospital furniture pursues the overall expression of space, and the designed hospital furniture has penetrability to break the boundaries between furniture and architectural space, forming a permeable space and achieving visual unity. The space is not separated by furniture, but organically integrates hospital furniture elements to create a sense of space in a random way, and users discover functions in the space due to this randomness.

The rationality of the layout of hospital furniture is crucial, as it directly affects the safety, efficiency, and humanized experience of the hospital's diagnosis and treatment process. As a professional hospital furniture manufacturer, one needs to have a high level of professional ethics. Not only should one understand the specific usage needs of hospital furniture in various functional departments, but also be familiar with the furniture industry and able to apply it accurately and flexibly. Make the hospital's environmental layout more humane and fully utilize the concept of "people-oriented".
