Architects
we create that connection, both with our interior
design choices and by providing access to
daylight and exterior views as much as possible. "
For example, the interior design includes
TOP: On the fifth floor, the checkin
desk at the surgery department
uses residential-inspired
furnishings to help put patients
and families at ease. ABOVE: The
Cancer and Blood Disorder Clinic
uses universal rooms, which allow
patients to remain in the same
room for all of their care. LEFT:
Artwork by local artists, including
whimsical wall illustrations of
animals in acts of caring, is used
as a navigation tool and a calming
distraction throughout
the building.
a color palette grounded in green tones with
complementary blues, pinks, and purples featured
in the furnishings, accent walls, and backlit
murals of forest scenes in the elevator lobbies.
Warming wood materials are featured in
tree-like pods or seating areas, with the wood
slats surrounding the seating nooks adorned
with carvings that depict stories of giving and
support. Additionally, natural daylight is maximized
where possible, including the main lobby
and staff respite spaces as well as in the surgical
waiting areas, which are placed along the building's
glass façade. " All of the public experience
was really about connecting the inside with the
outside, " says Thorsen.
CONTINUED GROWTH
While the new building is opening in phases,
planning is currently in the works for Phase 3-
another inpatient bed tower (called Forest C)
that will bookend Forest B on its north side and
complete the Forest zone. A future Phase 4 will
be infill in the Mountain and Ocean zones.
As Seattle Children's campus continues to
evolve, it will build on the success delivered on
this project. " Despite the potential challenges,
including different floor-to-floor heights, different
buildings, and being built on a hill, we
were able to create a cohesive experience, " Seattle
Children's Hansen says. " That is a huge,
huge win. " 
