Global healthcare spending is set to reach a colossal US$ 10.06 trillion by 2022, and advances in technology and medical science continue to drive increases in life expectancies around the world. But technology and science are not the only areas of focus. The importance of the healthcare environment is increasingly recognised.

Why colour matters in healthcare
Somehow too often we forget about colour and its power, particularly for healing. Hospitals and medical centres are places we visit when we’re sick, injured and anxious. Ordinarily the aesthetic is overly practical, more concerned with being hygienic and inoffensive and forgetting the need to create a healing environment.
