Enhancing Healing Spaces for Young Minds
Defined Design, a leading interior design firm specializing in Home and Garden - Interior Design, is delighted to present our collaboration with UnityPoint Health - Meriter on their Child/Adolescent Psychiatry Expansion project. With a passion for creating optimal healing environments, our team has worked tirelessly to design spaces that cater specifically to the needs of young patients and their families.
Empowering Mental Health Treatment through Design
In today's fast-paced world, understanding the importance of mental health and providing appropriate care is paramount. UnityPoint Health - Meriter recognized this need and took the initiative to expand their child and adolescent psychiatry services. Our role as interior designers was to complement their efforts by creating an atmosphere that promotes healing, comfort, and empowerment.
Stimulating Sensory Design
We take pride in our ability to strategically design spaces that balance aesthetics with functionality. In the case of the Child/Adolescent Psychiatry Expansion, our team focused on stimulating sensory design elements. Research has shown that visual, auditory, and tactile stimuli have a profound impact on the emotional well-being of children and adolescents in healthcare settings.
Thoughtfully Curated Themes for Patient-Focused Spaces
Each area within the expansion has been thoughtfully curated, with a distinct theme that resonates with young patients. The "Adventure Haven" zone simulates an interactive outdoor environment, complete with vibrant and nature-inspired murals, engaging play areas, and natural light fixtures to instill a sense of exploration and freedom. This space encourages social interaction and imaginative play, offering a therapeutic escape for children seeking distraction from daily routines.
The "Mindful Retreat" area aims to create a tranquil and comforting atmosphere, providing a safe haven for patients experiencing high levels of stress or anxiety. Soft hues, cozy furniture, and calming nature motifs work in harmony to create a serene environment, facilitating relaxation and mental rejuvenation.
Furthermore, the "Creative Expressions" zone serves as a creative outlet by incorporating art therapy into the design. Colorful walls, interactive displays, and dedicated art stations empower young patients to unleash their creativity as a means of self-expression and emotional release. This space allows for the growth and exploration of artistic abilities, offering a therapeutic outlet for individuals struggling with mental health challenges.
Patient Comfort and Safety at the Core
At Defined Design, we understand that patient comfort and safety should be the cornerstones of any healthcare facility. This philosophy guided our decision-making process when selecting materials, furniture, and fixtures for the Child/Adolescent Psychiatry Expansion. We ensured that every element of the design adheres to the highest standards of durability, functionality, and infection control protocols, providing a safe environment for both patients and staff.
Collaboration for Positive Impact
UnityPoint Health - Meriter's Child/Adolescent Psychiatry Expansion stands testament to the power of collaboration. Defined Design is grateful for the opportunity to contribute our expertise and create spaces that positively impact the mental well-being of young patients.
