The HTW Berlin – University of Applied Sciences started a research project to prove this. In this project we cooperated together with the school dentist service Neukölln. The small team consisted of 6 women: two students, two project managers, one service designer, and one interior designer. Our mission was to make administration to look and feel good.
The main idea was to create different worlds for the different rooms. This is a playful way to symbolize the different functions of the different stages of the visit at the dentist. We created friendly colors and illustrations to make sure that the children feel comfortable at all times and have something to explore.
The design of the different worlds is also something that children can recognize and remember better than abstract numbers. Through this, children can orientate themselves and find the rooms much easier.
