Keep it as few objects as you can, but make each one count. A white wall, a single panel of glass, a clear line of sight from the monitor to the patient—those are the only “noise” you need. Remove any extra wires, keep the lighting uniform and soft, and let the instruments be arranged in a tidy row, like a row of silent soldiers. The space itself should feel like an empty frame, so the surgeon’s focus stays on the patient, not on the décor. It’s about letting absence do the heavy lifting, turning the room into a calm, almost silent stage where the only sound is the breath of the patient.
