Warwick Hospital’s Victoria Ward provides care for patients with dementia (particularly the elderly). Outside the ward was long hallway which was particularly uninspiring and dreary space.  Together, with the Ward Staff, we created an interactive and thought provoking mural.

​

Careful consideration of colour played an important role in the design process, selecting hues that uplift rather than trigger patients. The park scene draws inspiration from the soothing influence of nature with green being the easiest on the eyes and usually the last colour dementia patients lose the ability to see

​

A printed zebra crossing laminated with our R9 slip-rated solution leads to an interactive bus stop and run of shops. The lively shop scene offers an engaging environment as well as patient dignity through printed window manifestations that block out unwanted views whilst adding to the artwork.

​

For the shop side, we used the colours of well-known logos that represent each shop. This detailed artwork showcases several hidden gems: old classic books, retro sweets and a bus timetable that features local areas to enhance the sense of familiarity across the wallcovering.
