Mission Statement
Scape is a module room partition concept intended to bring the healing power of nature into the patient care environment. Scape incorporates elements of water, sunlight emulation, natural plant life, and organic patterns to provide an atmosphere that promotes healing and rehabilitation. Healthcare applications include patient rooms, waiting rooms, lobbies. The concept could be expanded to include commercial, residential, and corporate applications.
The module design allows for customization to multiple venues, budgets, and applications. Specialty modules can be developed as additional needs are identified. The ability to scale up the system allows the client to fit to requirements.
Additional functions include storage compartments, sound dampening, guest seating, soothing water effects, and sunlight emulation. Storage compartments would provide guests and patients with private storage in patient rooms. Seating equipped modules would provide convenient temporary seating without disrupting the flow of the room.
Positioning statement
Scape provides a solution for the problem of providing the benefits of single patient rooms to multipatient rooms. The current practice of using curtains and panels to create privacy in multipatient rooms does not address some of the fundamental needs of the patients and their guests. These needs include communication, comfort, entertainment, and privacy. By utilizing a strategy of purpose built design, Scape addresses each of these needs.
