From Concept to Installation: our process
A wall decoration project for healthcare environments follows a structured workflow that ensures quality, schedule compliance and minimal disruption to facility operations:
- Briefing & site survey — client meeting, technical site visit, surface measurement and environmental assessment
- Creative design — visual concept development in coordination with the architecture studio or internal technical office
- Pre-press & colour calibration — a critical step to ensure chromatic consistency across different material types
- Production — high-definition printing with non-toxic inks on certified adhesive films
- Installation — carried out by specialist technicians, with scheduling planned to minimise impact on ward operations
- Final inspection — full quality check of the completed installation, including any corrective work
Certified materials for sensitive environments
Healthcare environments demand materials that go far beyond standard decorative specifications. The adhesive films we use are selected to meet the specific requirements of hospitals:
- Non-toxic, free from GBL (gamma-butyrolactone) and hazardous substances
- Fire-retardant, compliant with fire safety regulations for public facilities
- Washable, resistant to cleaning with hospital-grade disinfectants
- High-tack, suitable for technical surfaces (doors, frames, elevator cabins)
For each application surface — walls, ceilings, doors, elevator cabins — the adhesive film is selected based on the most appropriate technical specifications. This is never a standardised choice: it is defined project by project, surface by surface.
Lightboxes, Silhouettes and Panels to Complement Wall Graphics
In many healthcare humanization projects, adhesive wall murals are integrated with three-dimensional and illuminated elements that make spaces even more recognisable and immersive. Remor designs and produces lightboxes, illuminated panels, silhouettes and wall panels coordinated with the wall graphics, creating visual continuity between flat surfaces and architectural volumes.
In the case of the New Padua Children’s Hospital, for example, the mural graphics depicting different natural biomes are complemented by plexiglass silhouettes in stairwells and vertical elements that accompany circulation flows, reinforcing each floor’s identity and improving visitor orientation.
These elements can be used to: highlight strategic transition points (ward entrances, stairwells, circulation nodes), create focal lighting points in waiting areas and corridors, integrate wayfinding signage seamlessly with the ward’s visual narrative
Where we apply Adhesive Graphics: wards and facilities
Remor’s solutions are designed for any area within a healthcare facility. Our approach is always customised: each ward has its own visual language, responding to the specific needs of its users, functions and spaces. The integration of adhesive wall graphics, lightboxes and panelling delivers a coherent project in which every surface contributes to the humanization of care spaces — without compromise on the technical or maintenance side.
Wards dedicated to children are the context in which wall decoration achieves its greatest impact. The goal is to transform a space perceived as threatening into one of discovery and wonder. Nature-inspired imagery, animals and landscapes become visual companions for young patients during their stay, reducing distress and improving compliance with medical procedures.
Diagnostic suites are among the most critical environments from a care space humanization standpoint. Patients undergoing an MRI scan, a CT scan or a radiotherapy session face a context of intense emotional pressure — often lying completely still, with no possibility of distraction. Wall graphics decorating the walls and ceilings of these rooms — featuring natural landscapes, open skies and coastal views — create a visual distraction effect that measurably helps reduce anxiety.
This context also includes the humanization of the diagnostic suite through the customisation of the equipment itself: gantry skins — adhesive decorations applied directly to MRI and CT scanners — transform imposing machines into visually familiar elements, proving particularly valuable in pediatric settings.
In emergency departments and waiting areas, ward wall decoration serves a dual purpose: it reduces the tension of waiting and contributes to visual orientation within what are often complex circulation routes. Remor’s solutions can be integrated with visual wayfinding systems, creating seamless continuity between directional signage and the decorative scheme. The result is a coherent, legible and reassuring environment.
With the territorial healthcare reform introduced by Ministerial Decree 77/2022, the scope of care facilities has expanded well beyond the traditional hospital. Nursing homes (RSA), hospices, community health centres and day care centres are now widespread realities that demand the same design attention given to large hospitals. Wall murals for nursing homes and residential care facilities focus on familiarity: evocative imagery, warm colour palettes and identity elements rooted in the local territory all contribute to creating environments where residents feel at home — not in an institution.
Case Study: Padua Children’s Hospital
The project for the New Children’s Hospital of Veneto is one of the most significant hospital humanization interventions completed in Italy in recent years.
Remor was commissioned by Fondazione Salus Pueri to produce the wall decorations for corridors and common areas, based on a design by Florentine studio DU IT Srl. The concept drew inspiration from the Padua Botanical Garden — a UNESCO World Heritage Site — and the idea that each floor of the new building would represent a different natural biome. The colour choices are never arbitrary: each ecosystem has its own visual identity, accompanying the patient from the entrance through to the inpatient areas.
From a technical standpoint, the project required extensive chromatic calibration work across different surfaces — walls, ceilings, doors, elevator cabins — with different adhesive materials selected for each application. Over 3,500 m² of printed adhesive were installed using non-toxic inks free from hazardous substances.

Hospital humanization refers to a design approach that places the well-being of patients, families and healthcare staff at the centre of care environment planning. It includes the use of wall graphics, colour, lighting and visual elements to reduce anxiety and improve the overall hospital experience.
Research shows that exposure to nature imagery, calibrated colours and visual narratives reduces perceived stress and pain, improves patient compliance and positively influences staff well-being. The visual environment is an active component of the healing process.
We use certified adhesive films: non-toxic (free from GBL and hazardous substances), fire-retardant according to public facility regulations, washable with hospital-grade disinfectants and with high-tack adhesion for technical surfaces such as doors, frames and elevator cabins.
No. Our installations are planned to minimise disruption to ward operations. We work in phases — by floor, area or time slot — to allow normal healthcare activities to continue throughout the process.
es. We regularly collaborate with architecture studios and technical offices as executive partners. We handle production, material selection, chromatic calibration and installation, integrating seamlessly into the design team’s workflow.
We work with hospitals, pediatric wards, neonatology units, diagnostic suites (MRI, CT, radiotherapy), emergency rooms, waiting areas, nursing homes (RSA) and community health centres.
Adhesive wall murals are printed films applied directly to surfaces (walls, ceilings, doors) — minimal thickness, zero invasiveness. Backlit panels (lightboxes) are illuminated elements that add a three-dimensional, luminous component to the decoration. In many of our projects, the two solutions are integrated to create immersive and visually coherent spaces.
