The ophthalmology practice in Thiers needed a new venue with larger premises to accommodate the increasing number of patients and equipment. The new building has an exterior façade clad with Laminam, an architectural envelope intended to reflect the quality of service offered within the facility.
Like a futuristic vessel in the new Bastide district in Bordeaux, the HQ of Clinique Ophtalmologique Thiers attracts all eyes. Specializing in laser eye surgery since 1996, this state-of-the-art practice is the first in the Gironde department for cataract and retina surgery. A new direction that led to the extension of the building’s surface area (from 4,800 to 5,400 square metres), developed over five floors. The architecture of the practice was designed to adapt to the needs of patients and healthcare professionals, improving the patient experience, implementing new technologies and processes to offer an increasingly efficient and high quality service. The first floor is reserved for admissions, administrative staff and consultations. The second floor is used for doctor’s offices and can accommodate up to 30 patients at the same time, while medical services are provided on the upper floors.
