The hospital’s logo features the most famous medical sign, the cross, and the number 40. It combines strips of medical bandage and the cancer support ribbon. You can even see pills in it, a staple of any treatment!
The transparent shades of blue have a calming effect on people for whom every visit to a hospital is a stress. In addition to that, blue is also the color of technology.
