Midmark Synthesis Casework Wins International Design Award
Midmark Corp. “Midmark”, a leading medical solutions provider for ambulatory care, announced that its Synthesis™ Casework Collection, a durable clinical storage solution designed to address the diverse storage requirements and demands of medical facilities and environments, earned the internationally renowned GOOD DESIGN™ Award from the Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design.
Selected as a winner in the medical category for innovative and cutting-edge design, the Synthesis Casework is designed to help healthcare organizations maximize existing space, meet workflow requirements and compliance regulations, and complement infection controls protocols. The Collection helps caregivers address the changing needs of their medical facilities by bringing together levels of style and functionality that help to establish a unique, consistent brand while creating a clinical storage solution that is flexible and durable enough to meet the highly specialized needs of clinical work.
“Clinical work is highly specialized, and at times hectic. Caregivers need a space designed to accommodate the rigors of their daily routine while providing an environment that engages their patients’ senses with styles and finishes that invoke feelings of peace, comfort, tranquility and the natural world,” said Kurt Forsthoefel, marketing director, medical division. “The Synthesis Casework Collection allows healthcare providers to create a consistent brand perception across one or more facilities while creating a customized clinical environment that will function the way they need it to function.”
According to its website, the Chicago Athenaeum’s GOOD DESIGN Awards have been presented to the world’s most prominent designers and manufacturers since 1950 for advancing visionary and innovative product concepts that marry form with function. The emphasis of the GOOD DESIGN program is on quality design of the highest form, function and aesthetics a standard beyond ordinary consumer products and graphics. The annual award forwards the ideals of a design process that embodies product excellence and endurance and strong public identity.
