Interior architecture creates a quality environment for stationary healthcare: From pediatrics to geriatrics, the economic efficiency and patient satisfaction are increasingly at the center of treatment, healing, and care worldwide. A carefully thought-out, comprehensive interior architectural concept for the patient room can sustainably promote the patient's recovery process and improve the quality of stay. The book documents the design of the patient room as the heart of a hospital. It explains the various design components such as materials, color, light, and surfaces, and addresses the necessities of hygiene as well as questions of workflow and cost-effectiveness. Fourteen international project examples complement the presentation.
