Natural Flow and Professional Identity
Project Type: Pharmacy Renovation
Technical Direction: Dr. Sérgio Ribeiro P. da Silva
At Fernandes de Castro Pharmacy, the design strategy blends warmth and clarity to reinforce a strong sense of professionalism and trust. Wood tones were used consistently throughout the space to soften the atmosphere and bring visual harmony, from the entrance area to the service counter.
The intervention aimed to enhance spatial organisation while maintaining the pharmacy’s intimate, community-oriented character. A large front window now introduces ample natural light, increasing overall brightness and creating a more open and inviting environment.
The internal layout was redefined to facilitate smoother workflows and more intuitive navigation between distinct functional areas. Custom furniture and display units were seamlessly integrated into the architectural design, promoting both operational efficiency and visual consistency.
Medd Design’s Contribution
For Fernandes de Castro Pharmacy, Medd Design approached the renovation with a quiet yet purposeful strategy. Rather than imposing a new identity, the team worked to enhance the pharmacy’s existing character, clarifying visual hierarchies, and reinforcing functional zoning. The result is a space that feels effortlessly coherent, where every design decision serves the daily needs of both professionals and patients, while preserving the familiar atmosphere of a trusted community pharmacy.
