We've seen some amazing children's hospital rooms before. But this elephant-shaped MRI machine isn't in a children's hospital. The Edogawa Hospital in Tokyo is for adults, too, and handles a full range of medical services, including surgery. The design, but inside and out, pops with fun illustrations, shapes, and textures. The purpose of these features is to make a hospital visit fun, rather than dreary and depressing.
You can see many more photos at Kotaku.

That's true of most things, I guess.
