Entry Description

Inspired by teeth and dental tools, the design concept of the Dental Care Training Centre is derived by abstracting the curves and lines of 4 types of teeth (premolars, incisors, molars & canine) and dental tools which are seamlessly integrated into the interior spaces. An illuminated high-speed handpiece with LED light representing water sprays radiates out to create a striking visual effect. The colour palette with ivory as the natural colour of a tooth creates a soft, warm-tone ambience. Overall, the design aims to translate dentistry symbols to generate a contemporary yet unique identity.
