For patients of all ages—and their families—a visit to a medical facility can produce feelings of uncertainty and anxiety. Therefore, each touchpoint along the way matters. It is the careful attention to detail when planning the design of a healthcare facility that can help to establish an optimistic work environment for employees, and create a soothing atmosphere that supports patient wellness and boosts confidence in the capabilities of the clinicians delivering expert care.

The design of modern healthcare facilities continues to advance, shifting from the sterile and monotonous institutions of 50 years ago to today’s warm and welcoming structures intentionally tailored to the communities they serve. By incorporating durable ALUCOBOND into their designs, whether interior or exterior, its robust array of brilliant colors and rich finishes, allow architects to create eye-catching projects that stand out and make a positive impression.

Profiling a mix of healthcare facilities from across the country we showcase what’s possible with ALUCOBOND.

Highlands Oncology (Springdale, Arkansas)

The sleek look of this oncology center was intentionally designed to bolster the image of the healthcare system and deliver an innovative look that represents the state-of-the-art medical care that takes place inside, while also meeting the requirements of the overlay district of Springdale, Arkansas.

Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital (Hollywood, Florida)

To meet the growing needs of the community this hospital expanded in 2022. The center’s bold and colorful exterior, made from six custom ALUCOBOND PLUS colors, supports the institutional goal of cultivating a child-friendly atmosphere.

Atrium West Hospital (Matthews, North Carolina)

The design and color of the ALUCOBOND PLUS® panels was intentional, meant to honor the agrarian past and create eye-catching appearance that blends beautifully with the surrounding landscape.
