The new LINAC suite at McHenry Hospital features an impressive 21’ X 14’ Luminous SkyCeiling Ellipse. The installation’s rectilinear SkyTiles measure 3’ X 3’, which provide more than double the visual surface area than the Classic 2’ X 2’ SkyTiles, opens up the illusory sky above the equipment even further. Within the larger elliptical perimeter that frames the Open Sky Composition lies a second elliptical perimeter that holds ceiling-mounted monitors and cameras, as well as assorted imaging systems. At a perpendicular angle, the ellipse within an ellipse generates attractive curves.

The elliptical sky illusion provides a commanding visual and spatial footprint above the patient and the radiologists that has an autonomic effect on the physiology, facilitating a relaxation response. The Luminous SkyCeiling’s calibrated LED lighting helps support mental acuity and emotional balance by providing a credible illusion of perceived proximity to a natural exterior.
