We’re delighted to share some wonderful news from the Health and social Care Centre at Teddington Memorial Hospital. The Woodland Suite, home to the hospital’s outpatient pain clinic, has been named the winner of the Healthcare category at the UK Fit Out Awards.
Fit Out Project of the Year – Healthcare
The award, Fit Out Project of the Year – Healthcare, recognises the outstanding transformation of an outdated office space within an existing health centre into a welcoming, calming and patient-centred environment.
Studio4 Architecture
The project was designed by Studio4 Architecture, whose thoughtful approach combined nature-inspired graphics, carefully selected furniture and finishes to create a more comfortable and reassuring setting for patients. Innovative external ventilation was also introduced to overcome structural challenges within the existing building.
Community and Collaboration
A key strength of the project was the close collaboration between the architects and the clinical user group. Their input helped ensure that the new space worked not only aesthetically, but also met the practical needs of patients and healthcare professionals.
The League of Friends of Teddington Memorial Hospital was delighted to support the project with a generous donation, helping to fund enhancements to the graphics, furniture and other elements of the patient environment.
The Woodland Suite also has a special connection with our local community. Its name was chosen following an art and naming competition organised by the League of Friends for local schoolchildren. This helped give the new clinic a distinctive identity while creating a sense of local involvement and ownership.
For the League, this award is a wonderful recognition of what can be achieved when clinical expertise, innovative design, community involvement and charitable support come together.
We are incredibly proud to have played our part in helping create a more welcoming environment for patients attending the pain clinic.
We would like to offer our congratulations to Studio4 Architecture, the clinical user group and everyone involved in bringing the Woodland Suite to life.
It really was a team effort, and an award-winning one!
