Artfelt worked with designer Nick Deakin to create visually stimulating artwork across the Eye Department, alongside new furniture, flooring, and a refreshed paint scheme. Nick used bold colours and a simplistic style to create a world of characters running through the department. The project is designed to both engage and stimulate young patients, while also supporting clinical assessments through its thoughtful placement.
