The renowned interior design firm Herzog, Kassel + Partner in Karlsruhe has designed the new premises of a dental practice that make a visit to the dentist a completely new experience. Even at the reception desk, you feel like you're in the Arabian Nights. This luxurious, pleasant ambience extends throughout all rooms.
Here, you can experience how pleasant and luxurious a visit to the dentist can be. In the stylish, upscale premises of the practice in a penthouse location, Dr. Khalaf's friendly team not only ensures beautiful, healthy teeth, but also a warm welcome in a personal atmosphere—for the best possible dental health and the well-being of patients.


Anyone who has ever entered these practice rooms will change their perception of a visit to the dentist. Instead of a sterile, white environment, warm colors and a welcoming atmosphere create a feel-good atmosphere right from the start. Many people experience painful or unpleasant treatments during childhood. These experiences leave an emotional mark and are later automatically associated with the environment of a dental practice. The high-pitched humming and whistling of the drill, the clicking of metal instruments, or the sharp smell of disinfectants trigger unconscious stress reactions—even when no treatment is taking place. The bright light, sterile white, humming of the equipment, and metallic reflections can be intimidating to some people—especially if they are already sensitive to sensory stimuli. None of this can be found in this new dental practice.

This dental practice demonstrates that medical spaces do not have to appear sterile in order to be hygienic. This design concept focuses on warm, dark colors, elegantly combined with accents in gold. Walls and furniture fronts in deep anthracite create a calm, focused atmosphere – a far cry from the usual clinical austerity.

Here, you can sit comfortably and warmly in a waiting lounge as if you were in a bar. Our MOTU sofa series has been installed in the waiting room and is available for patients of all ages. The warm red of the fabric cover goes perfectly with the dark walls with golden accents.
