Abstract
A growing body of research shows evidence that the design of a physical environment can impact on people’s health and well-being (Devlin and Arneill, 2003, Huisman et al., 2012). Much effort is spent on improving the functionality of healthcare environments but the visual aspect of design and its impact on end-users is often neglected. Getting the design right for healthcare waiting areas is significant since they are one of the first interaction points between end-users and their healthcare journey, and where early impressions and quality judgments take place (Bitner, 1992, Ulrich, 2006).
