Whimsy images give children a world to explore when they’re feeling afraid at a doctor’s visit or can’t leave their hospital room. The images are playful, positive distractions, inviting young minds to wander.
Beloved by children and appreciated by healthcare designers for their balance of realism and creativity, Whimsy images invite young patients to engage their imagination, offering comfort and delight in clinical environments.
Created for pediatrics and family care spaces, Whimsy images help ease anxiety, spark curiosity, and create moments of connection for children, families, and the entire care team.
Each Whimsy image is rooted in evidence-based design and crafted to inspire curiosity in healthcare environments.
By combining the benefits of biophilic design with engaging visuals, the Whimsy collection turns healthcare walls into welcoming, less intimidating spaces.
At Norfolk Regional Hospital in Norfolk, NE, the whimsical images were printed on durable, triple-coated laminate canvas with a reinforced backing to ensure both stability and longevity. Installed throughout the pediatric department, the artwork provides engaging and positive distractions for children, families, and caregivers.
