Calming Comfort Dental Office Trend | TrenDS magazine

Beyond the Bustle of Everyday Life

A color-reduced neutral palette consisting of gentle colors, supple, velvety materials, and shapes that incorporate many curves combine to represent the Calming Comfort design theme. The aim of this design is to promote well-being, comfort and stress relief. While some designs are becoming of the moment, others are considered timeless. Calming Comfort manages to be both suitable as an antidote to the anxiety-filled present, while utilizing a design language that is classic in its reassuring familiarity and gracefulness.

The Color Scheme

The colors selected are a soothing balance of warm, cool, and neutral tones. Mild pastels, such as Aqua and Rosé work with Neutral White and Platinum Silver to provide a soft, feminine touch. A distinctive Umber shade complements the lighter series as darker shade for contrast. The colors are often matt and soft but can also have gentle shimmering effects. All of these characteristics work together to create a graceful and calming atmosphere.

Materials & Furniture

Materials are chosen for their pleasant haptic qualities. The textiles and upholstery materials are soft and voluminous in order to create a cozy feeling. The woods used are often light, smooth, and can be lacquered in a matt finish. Furniture may be minimalist, based on round, soft shapes that offer a comfortable and relaxing seating position but can also be generous in their size and volume of the seating area, inviting a person to sit down and relax.

Calming Comfort in the Practice

In the dental practice, the design language of Calming Comfort helps patients to feel relaxed and in good hands. Everything from the color scheme, to the gentle shapes and volume of the furnishings, to the materials chosen for their haptic qualities are welcoming. Design can affect existing emotions that a patient has walking into the dental practice by either amplifying or reducing them. Stepping into a waiting room designed around the Calming Comfort theme means a respite from the stresses outside.
