Health care design and wayfinding that improve the patient experience.
A few ways we bring your health care design to life.
From the moment a patient enters a facility, every touchpoint should foster comfort, clarity and confidence. Miller Zell integrates physical design with digital technology and the latest innovations in health care to create hospital signage, spaces and systems that align seamlessly with your brand strategy.
Donor recognition
Honor key contributors with flexible, eye-catching installations that balance form and function.
Health care interior design
Utilize patient-centered design principles to ensure every touchpoint meets the needs of patients and their families.
Wayfinding
Guide patients and visitors effortlessly through your space and improve experience and efficiency.
Digital signage

Prototyping
Build models to test and validate design functionality in health care spaces.
Project management

Intuitive navigation
Navigating health care facilities is not easy. From the parking garage to registration desk and everywhere in between, we apply the same intuitive wayfinding strategies used by national retailers to help patients, visitors and staff seamlessly navigate health care spaces. Strong design reduces visual clutter while enhancing your brand.
Elevated experiences
Beyond aesthetics, the built environment communicates your brand and its values to each patient, visitor and employee. Interior branding goes beyond logos; each element – colors, fixtures, donor recognition and artwork – contributes to a welcoming space that builds positive brand associations and long-term loyalty.
Functional zones
Health care spaces are more than just hallways and rooms. They also contain a variety of zones, like the layout of a grocery store or a department store. A large facility may have zones for healing, gathering, reflecting and nourishing, as well as other functional needs. Thinking in terms of zones helps ensure that the design and décor of each space delivers both form and function.
Digital displays
Consumers are accustomed to interacting with digital displays in retail environments. In health spaces, connected digital displays can serve a range of functions, including wayfinding, patient education, employee recognition and community engagement. With smart hospital design, integrate advanced technologies that enhance patient care and streamline facility/staff operations.
