Pediatric Wayfinding

Assignment

A FAMILY-FRIENDLY HOSPITAL EXPERIENCE

Hospitals aren’t typically the most fun places. The people are nice, but the environment is strange, sterile, and generally not kid friendly. The idea behind redesigning the Wayfinding at Nationwide Children’s Hospital was to design a system for patients, parents, and siblings. By creating a friendly and easily traversable environment, everyone would feel more at ease in an unfamiliar space.

A child-friendly icon system, activity book, and color-coded floor make the hospital a place for children both to learn their surroundings and feel comfort in knowing where they are.
