AYLO HEALTH
AYLO HEALTH: THINKING BEYOND THE NORM
Aylo Health had a vision of a modern concept for their new construction project pushing the boundaries of traditional medical office design to create a space with a high-end, hospitality look and feel. The client's desire for a hospitality concept led to partnering with Brent, Vice President of Real Estate at Aylo Health, who played a pivotal role in guiding the project design. The goal was clear – to seamlessly blend healthcare functionality with the warmth of a hospitality design. To bring this vision to life, the team carefully selected products from various manufacturers such as Global Furniture Group, MillerKnoll (Muuto), Kimball International, and 9to5. The addition of custom artwork by BetweenPixels imprinted a distinctive touch, with the contribution of color-matched pieces to spread brand identity throughout the space.
One of the key challenges faced was the implementation of custom artwork, a new venture for both the client and Elizabeth, CE’s Healthcare Sales Representative. The collaborative process involved numerous design reviews and multiple rounds of samples, ensuring that the artwork not only matched the brand colors but also meshed with the local community by featuring original photography from nearby landmarks.
The team's dedication to thinking about healthcare spaces differently and exploring new possibilities extended beyond artwork. Corporate Environments showcased various upholstery options and design elements, encouraging Aylo Health to step outside the comfort zone of the traditional medical office design while maximizing the use of new and innovative finishes that meet the cleaning and durability requirements of the healthcare field. The result was a space that felt unique, warm, and inviting – characteristics rarely associated with healthcare facilities.
In addition to furniture solutions, the project incorporated non-furniture elements such as lighting, staging, and faux plants. These elements, combined with the team's commitment to providing above-and-beyond services, bridged the gap between medical and hospitality spaces.
A memorable part of the project was a visit to the Leftbank showroom at America's Mart, where the team gained inspiration and handpicked pieces that aligned with Aylo Health's aesthetic goals. This hands-on approach strengthened the collaboration between Aylo and CE and ensured that every element of the design reflected the client's vision.
In the end, this new construction not only met Aylo Health's need for a hospitality-inspired healthcare space but exceeded expectations. The Corporate Environments team demonstrated that with creativity, collaboration, and a willingness to push boundaries, healthcare environments can be reimagined to provide a unique and positive experience for both staff and patients. The project stands as a testament of innovative design in rethinking traditional spaces.
