YOKOHAMA MACHIDA ORTHOPAEDIC HOSPITAL

Patients experiencing joint pain often face challenges in finding comfortable sitting positions. To accommodate patients' individual needs, such as body size, posture, and symptoms, we designed chairs of variable height and depth. Additionally, when converting the building (which was formerly used as a showroom for automobiles) we retained the existing arch patterns, which resemble vertebrae. The shade of blue used here is the hospital's signature color.
