The new Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital is a scheduled to open by the end of 2010.  The $340 million, 610,000 square foot replacement building is designed to offer state-of-the-art care for children across the region.

INNERFACE was selected as the signage and wayfinding partner early in the development process and worked as an integral member of the project team.  Key project elements include:

• Eclectic design to blend with interior finish palette
• Cost conscience design to maximize style and value
• Sign system designed to appeal to children of all ages
• Selective branding tie-in to enhance the brand without diluting it. 
• Complex wayfinding scheme including new hospital and existing research facility, POB, and parking garage.

The biggest challenge of the project was installation of the large “heart” logo and letters on top of both sides of the building.  Click here to see the video of the helicopter lift and logo installation.
