Refined Harbor View

LEED-certified The Foundation Architects worked with the owner of Mount Royal Dental in Duluth to design an office that is environmentally friendly. The result? A beautiful clinic that boasts smart materials and systems. The project pays attention to the environment in other ways, too. The clinic’s design has a vernacular port feel with a modern aesthetic.

Fluorescent lamps, low VOC paint and recyclable carpet, tiles and flooring—including reclaimed barn wood—are just some of the green materials used in the design. The space includes a floor plan that flows naturally for patients and staff. Take a look:

The mixture of reclaimed barn siding and other simple, clean materials is inviting—and good for the environment.



















Patients and staff appreciate the easy-to-understand floor plan.



















The treatment rooms are separated acoustically but share light by using resin panels with actual leaves embedded in the design.
