DESIGN GOALS WERE TO CREATE A SAFE ENVIRONMENT, PROMOTE HEALING AND NATURALLY EXTEND THE VISUAL IDENTITY OF THE NCH CAMPUS.
WOOD IS USED THROUGHOUT THE INTERIOR AS AN ELEMENT OF WARMTH AND COMFORT.
FIRST FLOOR LOBBY, WOOD ANIMALS, NAVIGATIONAL COLOR PATHS AND WALL GRAPHICS ARE EXTENSIONS OF THE NCH VISUAL IDENTITY.
THE OUT-PATIENT CLINIC IS ANIMATED BY ELEMENTS LIKE THE SEEK AND FIND WALL.
IN-PATIENT UNITS HAVE DIFFERENT COLOR SCHEMES. FLOOR PATHS AND WALL GRAPHICS ANIMATE THE ENVIRONMENT. WOOD IS USED TO ADD WARMTH. EACH UNIT HAS AN OUTDOOR PORCH.
