North Sound Dental Installation - Mill Creek, WA
Creating a Calm, Elevated Patient Experience Through Large-Scale Pacific Northwest Photography
When North Sound Dental in Mill Creek set out to elevate their space, their goal was simple: create an environment that feels calm, welcoming, and memorable for every patient who walks through the door.
Rather than relying on traditional framed prints, they chose large-scale Pacific Northwest photography printed on metal, transforming their clinic into a space that feels immersive, clean, and emotionally grounding.
This project is part of our ongoing work with healthcare facilities across King County, including Bellevue, Kirkland, Mercer Island, and surrounding areas.

The Challenge
Modern healthcare spaces require more than functionality.
Patients arrive with anxiety, uncertainty, and stress. The environment plays a direct role in how they feel before, during, and after their visit.
North Sound Dental wanted to:
• Create a calmer patient experience
• Elevate the visual identity of their clinic
• Move beyond the outdated artwork the space came with
• Install something durable, clean, and long-lasting
The Approach
We worked closely with the clinic to design a cohesive visual experience throughout the space.
Our process included:
• Identifying key focal walls throughout the clinic
• Creating custom mockups at accurate scale
• Selecting imagery that reflects the Washington State landscape
• Balancing statement pieces with subtle, calming visuals
Because scale is critical, every piece was previewed in advance using our mockup process, eliminating guesswork and ensuring each installation felt intentional.
The Result
The transformation was immediate.
Patients now enter a space that feels calm, expansive, and connected to nature.
Staff experience a more uplifting work environment.
The clinic’s overall identity has been elevated, creating a stronger impression and a more memorable experience.
Notes from the Doctor
“The quality of the art stands out immediately. Patients walk right up to the prints, noticing the detail and color. We get compliments on them every single day.”
We’ve invested heavily in equipment and systems, but patients don’t remember that. They remember how the space made them feel. The artwork is what stays with them.
The artwork has become a natural conversation starter. Patients always point out their favorite piece, and it’s different every time. That kind of engagement is something you can’t manufacture.
This isn’t just art. It’s a long-term asset. We can take it with us if we move, or it adds value if we ever sell the practice.” - Dr. Paul and Vartuhi Krzeszowski
Why Metal Prints Work In Healthcare
Healthcare environments demand durability, cleanliness, and longevity.
Our metal prints are:
• Non-porous and easy to clean
• Highly durable with no glass or framing required
• Resistant to fading, moisture, and wear
• Visually immersive with rich color and depth
Unlike paper or canvas, they maintain clarity and vibrancy for years , even in high-traffic environments.
Our Process
We make it easy for healthcare providers to upgrade their space without uncertainty.

A Note On Scale
One of the most common challenges in healthcare interiors is choosing the right size artwork.
Most pieces installed in clinics are too small making the space feel fragmented.
Our approach focuses on:
• Large-scale focal pieces
• Multi-panel installations
• Cohesive visual flow throughout the space
The result is a more immersive and intentional environment.
