Children’s Waiting Room Furniture

Our current project let’s us act like big kids (which we don’t find a struggle!) as we develop some furniture prototypes for a children’s waiting room.

Despite being a waiting room, this has to appeal to children and enable them to interact with each other and the environment. The best design projects often turn convention on its head in order to achieve results for a new audience.
We’re having fun with it!

Nauti But Ice

We have just finished the interior for a local cafe, Nauti But Ice.  Boex were commissioned by the owners Lucy and Dave Page to redesign the space, looking at seating layout, lighting plus wall and floor finishes. Many of the elements were reclaimed including the timber used to build the bar and wall cladding which used wood from the stockroom of the former Woolworths in Falmouth. The aim was to create a warm and cosy cafe feel…pop in the coffee is great!

Recovery Lounge

The name alone suggests a radically different approach to hospital design. Rather than a ward, which conjures images of rows of beds, this is a lounge where people can relax. As opposed to focussing on the illness or the medical procedure, it is a place for recovery. Recovery Lounge is a self-initiated project by Priestmangoode.
Intended for people recovering from minor operations, the lounge offers each patient their own zone, which is carefully oriented to maximise privacy. These zones are designed for comfort as well as efficiency, with furniture raised above the floor to allow easier cleaning, and push-button reclining beds like those found on aeroplanes.
