    Turns out lighter colors are perceived as cleaner and friendlier.

    Or maybe hospitals are racist too? Or we need more hospitals with black walls and floors.

      I dunno about friendlier, but it’s certainly easier to see dirt and stains, which makes it easier to keep clean.

      They should paint them red and tile them like all leisure centers used to be in the '80s.

      Big Custodian has lobbied hard to keep hospitals using them. Black would hide all flavors of bodily fluids, so they wouldn’t need to be cleaned as often. Instead we have to use pastel greens and blues that show every drop of blood and the tiniest smears of poo. It’s disgusting.

      Yo regular hospitals are freaky enough at night, please. I don’t think a funeral color scheme would help
