The Kobayashi & Kosasa Family Dining Room provides a place of respite, rejuvenation, and nourishment. The space is designed for mental and social well-being, effectively maximizing natural light, the highest level of indoor air quality, and acoustical mitigation through soffit clouds. Varied seating options create welcoming spaces. The lanai provides relief from the medical center’s cold temperatures with additional natural light. The Keiki Zone’s ocean-themed interactive flooring creates a fun play area. The high exposed ceiling is painted ‘sky’ blue to brighten the space. The design supports mental, emotional, and physical health for patients, families, staff, and the community.
