The Canberra Hospital
Paediatrics Ward
The aim of the project was to refurbish the children’s ward at The Canberra Hospital to rationalise and co-locate all paediatric functions, while also providing a more suitable environment for children, despite its location in the main central block of the hospital
The concept is based on a ‘cartoon’ theme, providing a framework where children of all ages can invent or imagine their own stories, creating spaces that feel ‘familiar,’ ‘fun,’ and ‘homely.’ Abstract themes include The City, Rainforest, The Desert, and The Beach.
