Healing, Ways of Visitation
by Jee Hee Lee

A place of temporary stay should not disregard the ambiance of a home. Every place you spend a period of time in becomes your home. A simple implementation can progress the emotional and physical healing process.    


Every individual possesses an unconscious, but emotional ambiance towards space called home. While the building’s social value and quality of life begin with the enormous task of designing elements of architecture, the relationship between color psychology and architectural strategy can provide productive roles that only “home” can offer. Emotional regulations, such as mood, the celebration color can offer the possibility for healing. However, yet the health care institution provides patient treatment with specialized staff and medical equipment but their psychological environments. While the inpatient room and endlessly long hallways tend to use plain white paint, the use of color diagrams can transform the experience of hospital visitation from place for sick to a home for healing. The color diagrams is a new interpretation of the spreadsheet driven design accumulated to meet individual’s emotional needs.
