# Calming Clinic Designs This Modern Health Clinic is Based on the Principles of Biophilia By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2019-02-19 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-health-clinic References: [retaildesignblog.net](https://retaildesignblog.net/2019/02/14/parsley-health-clinic-by-alda-ly-architecture/) & [alda-ly](https://www.alda-ly.com/#/parsley-health-nyc/) This modern health clinic could easily be confused for a stylish apartment or a chic apartment space, as it boasts a soothing scheme and a sense of comfort that is often absent from many [sterile medical facilities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/t72-dental-clinic). The design of the [Parsley Health Clinic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/labs-review) in New York by Alda Ly Architecture intentionally creates this sense of soothing with its [biophilic design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mangrove-garden), an approach that uses natural elements to improve mental and physical wellbeing. Parsley Health sets itself apart as a "disruptive high-tech practice" and demonstrates its holistic approach to healthcare with this new flagship location that boasts meditation nooks, a dining area, a pantry and plenty of natural elements.
