GOOD DESIGN AWARD Winner

Semi-private room unit FX (Semi-private room unit FX)

Semi-private room unit

Semi-Private Room Unit FX (Semi-Private Room Unit FX) is a system that simultaneously improves the treatment environment for hospitalized patients and improves the hospital's management.
For hospital rooms that are separated only by curtains, providing no privacy, or that lack sufficient storage space or means of communication with the outside world, we offer an excellent recuperation environment through leasing, equipped with a wide variety of system furniture, TV, and internet access.
Not only does the hospital not need to make an initial investment, but it can also earn non-insurance income by setting a differential room fee for rooms in which this system is installed.
This is a groundbreaking system that solves two difficult problems: improving patient service and increasing revenue.

Evaluation Comments from the “Good Design” Committee

Currently, the mainstream of office buildings tends to use aluminum and glass extensively for both exterior and interior finishing materials. Office interiors are also moving in the direction of being more open and light, rather than looking like a stately office. Against this background, in recent years, office furniture with a style that matches this trend has been created, and this product was praised for its clean aluminum legs and overall light and refreshing exterior design.

In recent years, while reducing office costs, companies have also been faced with the challenge of securing training space to improve individual capabilities in response to new working styles such as hot desking offices.
The two design concepts of "nestable" and "three chairs can fit on a 1800mm wide conference table" allow for space saving, while also achieving a voluminous design and excellent seating comfort that reduces fatigue even when sitting for long periods of time.
The backrest is made of a transparent elastomer, which not only improves the fit, but also allows the chair to blend in with bright spaces that make extensive use of glass.It also makes it easy to wipe off dirt as the chair will be used by an unspecified number of people.

Evaluation Comments from the “Good Design” Committee

It saves space by allowing three chairs to fit on a conference table with a width of 1800mm, and has a sturdy design that is comfortable to sit on. The design when viewed from the back of the seat is beautiful, and the balance between the material of the backrest, the seat, and the legs is excellent.
