Child-Friendly Medication Packaging

The 'Animal Ringer' Brightens Up Hospital Rooms

— September 18, 2018 — Lifestyle
The conceptual 'Animal Ringer' has been designed as a packaging for hospitals that could help to make the environment less intimidating for young children to ensure they feel more comfortable.

The packaging comes in three variations that includes a polar bear, a baby chick and a penguin, which are all intended for different kinds of medications. This helps to brighten up a hospital room and make it more inviting for children who are spending time there for treatment.

The conceptual 'Animal Ringer' is the design work of Yun Ye Lee, Ji Hoon Park and Cha Il Lim, and is one of the winners of the 2018 Asia Design Prize. The design also makes it more intuitive for healthcare providers to pinpoint the right medication for patients thanks to the animalistic aesthetic.
Trend Themes
1. Child-friendly Medication Packaging - Designing more visually appealing medication packaging specifically targeting young children could give rise to innovative printing and manufacturing techniques.
2. Animal-inspired Healthcare Aesthetics - Creating animal-inspired interior design for hospitals and other healthcare facilities could lead to a more calming and stress-free environment for patients.
3. Intuitive Healthcare Innovations - Developing healthcare innovations that are more intuitive to use could help healthcare providers improve patient care and efficiency of service delivery.
Industry Implications
1. Pharmaceuticals - Innovative pharmaceutical companies could take advantage of the trend towards child-friendly medication packaging by investing in research and development of new packaging designs and materials.
2. Healthcare Interior Design - Healthcare interior design firms could explore animal-inspired design concepts to help create more patient-centered environments that promote healing and wellbeing.
3. Healthcare Technology - Developers of healthcare technology could take advantage of the trend towards intuitive design by creating more user-friendly interfaces and simplifying complex processes and workflows.
