Boston Children’s Hospital Longwood Entrance

Project Location: Boston, MA

Client: Boston Children's Hospital

Architect: Elkus Manfredi Architects

MYKD developed a new visual identity for the entrance experience for the hospital. The character of the space is conceived as ‘Playful Nature in the City’.  The design is highlighted by a fabric of green and blue pavers which define the entry court. A row of birch trees and hedges frame a new graphic granite wall that is inscribed with images from nature; from birds to butterflies.  The plant selection transforms throughout the seasons in color and texture.
