Environmental graphics for well-being
Biophilic design in clinical settings has reported reduced stress and improved well-being when visual cues echo nature. Keeping this in mind simple and direct graphics were developed taking inspiration from the 5 Tinais - Kurinji, Mullai, Marutham, Neithal, Palai.
Each floor uses the hues of the lacquered glass in the interiors as the base colour to create a unique colour scheme for each department.
This project is a collaboration with Sankar and Associates, Coimbatore.
Inspired by the Neelakurinji blooms, this floor represents Kurinji (hilly regions)
Inspired by the rocky dry lands around Madurai, this floor represents Palai (arid region)
Inspired by the coast of southern Tamil Nadu, this floor represents Neidhal (coastal region)
Inspired by the agricultural fields around Thanjavur, this floor represents Marutham (fertile plains)
Inspired by the underwater life observed in the coasts of Rameshwaram, this floor represents Neidhal (coastal areas)
Inspired by the hornbill sighting in the Anaimalais, this floor represents Mullai (forests)
