Children’s hospital interior design, La Vida Interior Design

british designer morag myerscough has created a series of bold and bright bespoke bedrooms for sheffield children’s hospital, transforming patient spaces into artistic tableaus. four schemes are rotated throughout 46 en-suite bedrooms and six multi occupancy bays, including a paler color palette designed for children who have conditions such as autism. ‘although the rooms are for children, I didn’t want them to be childish because children of all different age groups will be staying in them’ myerscough explains. ‘I also wanted to create somewhere parents would be happy to spend time too. it was just about making a bedroom that you felt good to be in.’

commissioned by artfelt, the children’s hospital charity’s arts program, the project brings a punchy palette of pink, yellow, green, and blue hues to the rooms. the new spaces, created by avanti architects, have a soft and domestic sensibility, and have been crafted to help make the clinical more comfortable by hiding plugs and wires behind formica panels.
