New DMC Heart Hospital reboots signage

Signage is designed to connect people to new location and build awareness


The DMC Heart Hospital — the first new hospital built in Detroit in a generation. Cardiac services previously were spread across DMC’s 16-block urban campus.

The heart hospital wayfinding plan was the first to be implemented on this campus, the article said.
