Wikoff Design Optimizes Patient Comfort with a Home-Away-From Home Aesthetic
The “home away from home” aesthetic is what works best to support the patients comfort and therapeutic advances in health care.
To help achieve this goal, sophisticated color palettes, textures and natural light cater to an elegant yet inviting family setting in this postpartum room design.
The sky light over the table casts a natural light to welcome the day with your new bundle of joy, while shades on outside windows can be drawn for needed privacy during those intimate moments with baby.
Patient room furniture collections come in a variety of styles that include wardrobe closets, dinette sets and comfortable chairs for visitors as well as a fold out sleep chair for Dad.
Medical supplies and linens are discreetly tucked away in matching cabinetry, and there is plenty of room for healthcare workers to circumnavigate the room even while guests are present.
An easy mop floor, free of rugs, gives a care free and clean feeling in this fresh uncluttered design.
The image shown here is from a renovation/relocation project done by Anne Marie Wikoff* of the Wikoff Design Studio. The design was implemented for Renown’s Postpartum/NICU unit. The sky light shown in the image is a SkyFactory product.
