Maybe a difficult conversation just happened, or the people who were there before you were under stress.
Why the Most Influential Layer of Healthcare Design Is the One You Can’t See Every healthcare environment is designed with intention. Floor plans are carefully organized. Workflows are mapped. Materials are selected for durability. Lighting is planned. Every decision serves a practical purpose and supports the delivery of care. Yet
When people walk into an exceptional healthcare environment, they notice the obvious things first. The natural light. The materials. The flow. The attention to detail.
