An extension at the Whakatane Hospital in New Zealand included a new emergency department, ambulance bay, staff offices, surgery facility and wards for paediatric, surgical and medical patients, as well as an internal courtyard space.
Diadem undertook a comprehensive wayfinding strategy for the interior of this new extension, followed by design and documentation of the wayfinding signage based on those recommendations.
As with all of Diadem’s work in the health sector, the signage needed to be clear, practical, economical, future proof and aesthetically pleasing.
