The Forward-Looking Design Research Center is the company’s core design and R&D division dedicated to healthcare and laboratory environment development. It focuses on continuously driving functional optimization and design innovation in medical and research spaces through systematic design strategies and a standardized methodology framework. Guided by comprehensive design research across the entire project lifecycle, the center integrates global perspectives, cutting-edge design capabilities, and practical implementation feasibility—spanning critical phases such as in-depth early-stage planning, refined visualizations, material selection and specification, and enhanced construction adaptability. Together, these efforts enable the center to build a robust, full-cycle design research system tailored for highly complex projects.

Research Directions and Core Tasks

Research on Forward-Looking Design Methods

Research on Forward-Looking Design Methods

Focusing on the evolving trends in medical and laboratory spaces—such as workflow organization, circulation logic, functional layout, and cleanroom technologies—we are conducting forward-looking design strategy research centered on a "people-first, function-driven" approach. This work aims to provide both theoretical foundations and practical guidelines for developing innovative healthcare environments.

Standardization and Feasibility Study

Standardization and Feasibility Study

For highly complex medical and research scenarios, we will establish a robust design standards system to enhance the reusability and feasibility of design outcomes. While staying within the project budget, this approach will also boost design execution efficiency and ensure accurate implementation and faithful restoration of the final results.

Materials Application and System Integration Research

Materials Application and System Integration Research

Leveraging the "Forward-Looking Design Materials Center," the system is systematically advancing research in areas such as materials database development, color compatibility analysis, and construction accuracy assessment—ultimately enhancing the consistency and controllability of materials throughout the entire process, from design selection to construction application.

The research center houses a Materials Center, which serves as an integrated platform for materials management and display. It features a centralized display and monitoring system located at the company headquarters. The center is divided into several functional zones, including sections dedicated to standard color palettes, decorative panels, medical-grade rolls, PVC products, protective equipment, prefabricated components, and an advanced IT-driven exhibition area. All materials are meticulously organized by brand, price range, series, and color, while an intelligent system ensures real-time tracking of inventory levels and usage dynamics.
The Material Center effectively supports designers in making efficient decisions during stages such as sample creation, material comparison, and color coordination, helping to shorten the material response cycle while providing standardized, precision-driven material implementation support for each project. Additionally, the center serves as a key venue for external showcases and professional receptions, making it an important hub for hospital clients to conduct on-site visits and technical exchanges. It also acts as a practical platform for the company to put its "Design Precision in Action" philosophy into practice.
