Time for an update? Holmes Regional Medical Center wanted to update their children’s floor. Since Holmes is located in Melbourne, Florida just a mile from the ocean an aquatic scene was the design of choice and Nora Rubber was the flooring choice of the design and construction department. The job was fast tracked starting in February of 2010 and completed from the design phase thru final installation in less than six months. The Waterjet Works website waas filled with aquatic life from…

•  fish 
•  sea shells
• palm trees
• beach sandals and
• beach balls

Photos of the icons are below. Notice the details and small pieces that are assembled in our production facility and then shipped pre-assembled to the jobsite for easy installation.

Simple Idea… Simple Design…Simply Fun… yet it had a profound effect on the children who visited the hospital. Chloe came to visit with Spina Bifida numerous times. Because of her inability to walk, she spent a good deal of time on the floors scooting around. She loved the floor designs so much that she made up stories about the crabs, leaves and fish. The designs took her places in her mind that her legs could not take her to.

Chloe asked her parents if she could have her floor at home like the hospital.

Her parents made the effort to connect to the administration, the architects and then Waterjet Works.

All it took was hearing Chloe’s story. She travels a good deal now…in her mind.
