Entry Description

Champalimaud Foundation _Investigation Center | 2010


CJC was invited to submit a proposal for the Interior Design
for the new Research Centre of the Champalimaud
Foundation due to inaugurate this current year.

With both a research and treatment component, it is a
place where you want the patient to have a ‘close’ link
searching for its own cure – the humanization of the space
is implied.

Based on the immensity of space, the main objective was
the creation of spaces / areas inside this same space in
order to decrease it to the human scale and provide
comfort.

In defining the different areas we met the different
requirements of potential users, creating multiple options of
leisure, more or less intimate, more or less comfortable
and / or formal.

The spatial connection between interior / exterior is a
physical characteristic of the building itself, so a starting
point for the developing the concept.
The evocation of nature is thus a basic and recurrent
element, either through the use of natural materials like
wood, straw and linens, either through light projections on
the walls that dialogue with outside gardens showing its
variations of movement and foliage.

The colours are sober and clear, quiet and peacefully
seeking the evocation of feelings and emotions of energy,
positivity and peace. These emotions are also expressed
through graphic projections that receive visitors at the
entrance.

The design pieces by CJC are combined with the design
classics in a contemporary language that is intended to be
calm and comfortable.
