Designing colourful floor in hospitals and other healthcare facilities

A well-crafted colour palette can do wonders for a healthcare facility. The use of colour and graphic images can align to the existing logo and symbolic colour of the facility to achieve an overall visual aesthetic, while it can also elicit emotions and unique perceptions of space. It has an ability to calm or excite, can make a room appear smaller or more grandiose, or even trigger subconscious reactions. Colour is the most vital, impactful and expressive design element in a designer’s toolbox.

They account for about 86% of total injuries, and 90% of these happen because the floor is wet. These injuries are particularly prevalent in the food industry, where they occur four times more often than the average in other industries. Injuries can create significant impacts to all involved.
