In mid nineteenth century, Nightingale wrote that green in nature is important for recovery of a patient. The design project focused on bringing relieved feeling to a patient and a worker in the hospital by elucidating the woods adjacent to the facilities. Also for a visitor to the hospital, the act of "reading" gives the visitor a little more stress than usual, so that a unique selection and control of a typeface were carried out. At the same time, a linear style direction by the light at a major part of the facilities was implemented for a first time visitor's move at ease in the hospital. SDA Excellent Award of the Year 2006
