Wellington's new children's hospital is spread across three floors, with 50 beds and 21 clinic rooms, situated at the northern end of the Wellington hospital campus, connected by a link bridge to the main hospital. Brightly coloured glass fins were installed in keeping with the key principle of the design which was that the environment was child-centred and family-friendly. Another unique design was that of the Keramo Glass panels (ceramic fritted glass), which were created with pictures and symbols that children could enjoy and interact with.
