Niswonger Children's Hospital

        Mountain City, Tennessee, USA


        In a design by Karlberger, Sensitile Terrazzo™ tiles create a playful and interactive feature wall in the elevator area of this Tennessee children's hospital. The unique and unexpected interactivity of the material is triggered by ambient conditions of movement and light, creating a desire to explore. Positive distraction has been found to be beneficial to health and healing, particularly in a healthcare environment.
