Design narrative

Pediatric environments that meet children at their own scale — bright, playful and reassuring.

A children’s hospital in Delaware where the interior meets its young patients at their own scale. Murals, alcoves and reading nooks turn clinical circulation into a sequence of small discoveries.

Color is used with intent — saturated where children play and wait, quiet where families need rest — so the building reassures as much as it treats.
