Healthcare Design - September 2016 - 68

The exterior was
designed to promote
playfulness. The
toy-like nature of the
building can be seen
in large elements and
in the details, with
various methods of
scale and shape used
in its composition.

While simple in its final
form, the surgery nurses'
station started out much
more complex in the
mock-up phase. Through
a series of discussions
and revisions, the space
became more flexible
and clutter-free.

ompleted in January 2016, the new three-story,
64,500-square-foot Children's Hospital of Michigan - Troy expands Detroit Medical Center's (DMC's) network to Oakland County, Mich. Color
played an integral role in the design of the hospital. Organized as a composition of colorful toy blocks, the building establishes an immediately
recognizable identity for patients and their families, and the different colors also have functional value, designating the different units of the building. The blue block signifies the main functional groups, the yellow block
represents the main entrance, and the red block identifies the emergency
entrance. The interior layout and planning were designed to provide
movement along the perimeter-which is primarily glass with views to
the surrounding landscape-to enhance the experience of both patients
and visitors. In total, the building is composed of seven different colors of
glazed brick, specifically selected for the small child scale, and six different colors of glass. Located on a dark portion of road, the hospital is a visual
beacon at night and a kaleidoscope of color during the day.
The project was designed by Harley Ellis Devereaux (Southfield, Mich.)
with input from DMC. Patient care and workflow efficiency were top priorities throughout the planning and design phases. Simpler Consulting
led a Lean and integrated facility design process early on, bringing together approximately 100 physicians, nurses, and support staff from the hospital-along with parents and children from the community-to gather
insights. Some of the design initiatives that came from the integrated design process include reliance on a refined Lean process to eliminate waitHCDMAGAZINE.COM
