Transform
high-stress environments through the use of color
Vara
Kamin’s Impressions of Light® images change the energy of a
space by altering the intensity of light and interjecting
color therapyin the form of
visually-engaging, multi-layered paintings. These images provide
healthcare practitioners, designers, architects and facility
planners with a lighting solution that contributes to the
transformation of high-stress healthcare environments into more
relaxing spaces, and are appropriate for placement in a wide
variety of healing environments.
Cost-effective
images offer stress-reducing benefits
Vara
Kamin’s Impressions of Light® images are cost-effective backlit
ceiling and wall environmental enhancements replicated from the
original art of Vara Kamin.
As
healthcare continues to evolve in the blending of conventional
and alternative therapies, these images have the potential to
serve an immediate need of healthcare providers.
Vara
Kamin’s Impressions of Light® images offer a tangible and
affordable way to fulfill the provider’s
healing mission of
creating environments that help integrate and support the total
patient.

"Healthcare facilities today are looking to improve their
healing environments, and in most cases, having to do this
on an increasingly constrained revenue stream.
So,
from a medical perspective as well as a business
perspective, Vara Kamin's work is an indispensable
choice. It makes a dramatic difference for patients and
staff at an affordable cost."
