A new injectables clinic in Toronto, designed by locally based Studio Author, redefines the cosmetic treatment experience with bold color blocking, open-plan layouts, and unexpected transparency.
Inside POUTx
Spanning under 800 square feet, the POUTx clinic makes an immediate impression with its immersive palette of vibrant pink and lipstick red, accented by surgical stainless-steel finishes.
Microcement floors and walls, paired with a matching pink ceiling, create a seamless material composition, while neon tube lighting and oversized domed mirrors manipulate light and space.
Unconventional transparency
A striking 19-foot-long stainless-steel welcome desk serves as both a social hub and a visual anchor.
From this central point, guests are offered an unconventional view into two open treatment pods, which were created to challenge traditional privacy norms in the cosmetic industry and reject the stigma around aesthetic procedures. Floating transparent red acrylic walls further reinforce this ethos.
Form meets function
Each treatment pod features custom operatory-style stainless-steel nurse’s stations, large circular mirrors for consultation, and adjustable overhead surgical lighting for precision.
A concealed workstation discreetly houses a freezer for injectables, medical sharps disposal, and storage for ancillary items, ensuring that function is integrated into the design.
