For Parsley Health’s 5,500-square-foot NYC flagship, ALA deployed biophilic design principles to create a calming, comfortable care office that breaks from industry norms. Located on the second floor of a 115-year-old Fifth Avenue tower, the space encompasses health coaching and exam rooms, a member lounge with café, a diagnostic testing lab, and administrative offices. At the entrance, a reception desk guides visitors to a luminous, plant-filled member lounge. The east-west corridor’s considered lighting design allows for comfortable, safe, and seamless navigation—a biophilic concept known as “Prospect”—and lighting throughout was selected to positively impact Circadian rhythms.
