It's supposed to be paint, like for a kid's wing.

I like the design. Red is just a poor choice. Purple, Green, Orange, Cyan, Pink, and this would look really good.

Why are the walls so bare?

[–] [email protected] 29 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Quick, splash some of that red paint on the walls, too!

It would be cute if it was done with children's handprints!

The dying hand prints I the far wall are a nice touch! They probably need more, you're right.

Don't dead. Open here

I hope other parts of the hospital use other colors and this is just the only unfortunate hallway.

It's an awful decision!

I've seen a similar design fail at a veterinary kennels - super Gucci, super nice, super high tech... but useless because a deep scarlet was used as a kennel floor paint. For the sickest of dogs (in the health sense, not busting 900's in a doggy daycare halfpipe) - one of the first signs of serious illness is blood being left from one or more orifices in the kennel after a set amount of time. The nature of the floor meant that this couldn't be seen at first glance.

Same thing with black latex gloves - they might make you feel like you're about to pull of a diamond heist, it they're a bit shit for medicinal use as a medic or first responder can't check for (or otherwise notice) hidden blood or leakage during an initial survey.

Interesting stuff if you ever get to work beside those sorts of folks.

Something something color theory

This empowering design reminds me of a children's hospital.

"look mom, that room is where they cut people open!"

Hopefully you're bleeding less when you leave than when you went in.

Well, I guess it makes navigation easier, but leading patients and family through the space with what looks like a blood trail just seems in poor taste.

As a Tumblr user I see this image 5 times a week.

Someone needs to check on President Shinra.

Is this the picture tumblr had the color theory argument over?

Reminds me of the first Max Payne game.

At least the walls are not painted green.

Is this the new Adventure Line?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

It reminds me of Dementium.
