Fitting out of a dental clinic in commercial premises on the ground floor of a residential building in Amara-zaharra. Proyect in collaboration with Borja Llop and Javier Machinbarrena.

The dental practices occupy the centre of gravity of the floor. On one side the public area (waiting room and bathrooms) is developed and on the other side the patient treatment area (hallway, panoramic X-rays, an area where patients can rest after being operated upon, bathrooms and an office). The entrance and reception connect and co-ordinate the different building uses.

The use of wooden panels in the walls and ceilings as well as several large glass panes in order to fill the dental surgeries with natural light, lend the desired ambient warmth and consistency to the building.
