Artistic Wayfinding: Colour Themes and Art for Lift Lobbies

Art and colour themes help patients and visitors discover their way. The colour bluish was chosen for the Bloomberg Children's Center and the color green for the Sheikh Zayed Tower. The moment you step off an elevator, the palette of colors will tell you lot where you are.

Each elevator lobby also features original artwork. In the Bloomberg Children'south Centre, fine art inspired by children's books delights our youngest patients and provides their families with memorable 'landmarks.' In the Zayed Tower, art inspired by nature and the garden is located outside each lift bank and displayed throughout waiting rooms, corridors, and staff piece of work stations, bringing an element of peace to the busy infirmary setting.

Fun with the Alphabet

Baltimore artist Lauren P. Adams worked with children staying at The Johns Hopkins Hospital to create an artful upper-case alphabet to exist displayed in the Bloomberg Children's Heart. Adams taught the children a technique calledpapel picado, for creating newspaper cut-outs, which were transformed into colorful silkscreens by Baltimore Print Studios. Additional alphabet-themed artworks include Scott Teplin'sAlphabet for Alphaville, a playful fix of letters featuring intricate and fanciful scenes, and Jeffrey Mitchell'southABCDEFGHI<3U.

The alphabet theme continues outside the Bloomberg Children'south Center, where the 26 colors that artist Spencer Finch used on the infirmary's giant curtain wall are displayed in alphabetical order by colour name.
