UNMH Pediatric Care Center
Providing a comfortable & cheerful environment for young patients at UNMH
The mission of this project was to transform the University of New Mexico's Pediatric Care Center into a vibrant, welcoming place for children and their families who utilize its services.
By using prefab interiors, vivid wall graphics, and interactive surfaces, this once clinical environment gave way to an atmosphere that exudes positivity and comfort, catering to the well-being of both children and their caregivers.
University of New Mexico Pediatric Care Center
Location:
Albuquerque, New Mexico
Facility Size:
4,800 SQ FT
The whimsical drawings were specifically designed to calm children waiting for their appointments, starting in the lobby and continuing all the way through to the exam rooms.
The walls were also made to be writeable, allowing the children to focus on creative expression and not the apprehension that comes with waiting at the doctor’s office.
This comprehensive renovation spanned 4,800 sq ft throughout the entire clinic, including administrative spaces, waiting rooms, and exam rooms. The center also had to remain open for the duration of the renovations, requiring the team to be especially strategic and careful to execute the upgrades with the fewest interruptions possible.
