Congratulations to NBBJ Partner Stacey Hooper, AIA, LEED AP BD C on her induction into the Facade Tectonics Institute’s College of Fellows! The College of Fellows honors those who have made a significant contribution within their careers to the art, science, and technology of the building facade, and who recognize the importance of the building facade in the built environment. Passionate about education and the advancement of the profession, Stacey is a board member and former Board Vice President of the Facade Tectonics Institute, and regularly lectures on facade design and other critical design issues including the link between carbon, facade systems and healthy buildings. #FacadeTectonicsInstitute #NBBJDesign

A lab designed for collaboration. A healthy, sustainable research building. Flexibility to adapt to any need. Understanding scientists’ preferences in the workplace is critical to ensure that research buildings are sound real estate investments, promote innovation, and support well-being. Yet despite a predicted $90 billion being spent on lab construction over the next ten years, no comprehensive survey has been conducted to understand what scientists want at work. Until now. We partnered with The New York Academy of Sciences to survey 1,059 scientists from the organization’s global community. When paired with design solutions, the responses provide valuable insights into how research buildings can be built differently. Read more about what we learned—and how our findings can be applied to create the research buildings of the future—here: https://lnkd.in/gu5mmCCJ And stay tuned for more survey insights related to remote work, technology and sustainability coming in January. #workspace #science #research #labdesign #architecture #nyasciences #nbbjdesign

We’re proud to announce that the atrium of 325 Binney Street, home to Moderna’s global headquarters, wins two IIDA New England Awards! The project is recognized with the “Best in Show Award” and the “Science and Research Design Award” by the program, which celebrates design excellence in the New England region. An ultra-sustainable lab building developed by Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc., 325 Binney Street’s grand atrium creates a light-filled collaboration zone with a crystalline prism wall and a “veggie stair” that cascades upward. #iidane #interiors #lab #science #awards #nbbjdesign

Happy #WorldArchitectureDay! Taking place on the first Monday of October, World Architecture Day serves as a reminder of the collective responsibility of architects to design a better future. This year’s theme is “Empowering the Next Generation in Participatory Urban Design,” highlighting the significance of young architects in urban planning and development—something that’s of the utmost importance to us as we grow our legacy as a firm and as a practice. Young architects at #NBBJDesign play a crucial role in shaping resilient, sustainable urban environments, advocating for design justice, adaptive reuse, and community engagement.

Are you attending the 2024 Healthcare Design Conference next week? Be sure to join NBBJ’s Katelyn Cantelli, along with Antwanette Lyons of Odessa Brown Children’s Clinic, Seattle Children's; Beatriz Gomez of Brigham and Women's Hospital; and Dakota Jones of InOrder Business Development for “Equity in Design Is Not a Quota,” a panel on harnessing the power of equitable design in healthcare projects. “Equity in design starts with a lens of empathy; listening to the community and unique user groups that a space or building will serve,” says Cantelli. To learn more about NBBJ’s empathetic design approach, read Healthcare Design’s interview with Katelyn here: https://lnkd.in/gBgxqz4y #HCDCon #NBBJDesign
The 2024 HCD Conference in October will offer a variety of educational sessions. In this Q+A, presenter Katelyn Cantelli of NBBJ Design talks about what #equity looks like in healthcare design and how to foster #community engagement on projects.

For us as workplace designers, the RTO conversation is never *really* over. Here, Harvard professor and future of work expert Prithwiraj Choudhury weighs in on Amazon’s announcement that employees will work in the office five days a week. We partnered with Raj to create NBBJ’s 40% Office, a framework for when and what work happens together in the office, and what that means for workplace design. Grounded in research that suggests at least 40% is the ideal amount of time to spend together, the 40% Office addresses the needs of businesses, their performance, and mentorship, while also supporting the well-being and flexibility of employees. To learn more about how the 40% Office can maximize the benefits of our current hybrid way of working, visit our website: https://lnkd.in/g5QYHpqN
On the Amazon RTO announcement, I added my thoughts to this article in Washington Post. As an academic, I view each one of these "stories" as a data point. While some of the stories (such as the current one with Amazon or the Twitter story after the takeover) point in one direction, other announcements (such as Glassdoor doubling down on Remote Work and the recent announcement of the Starbucks CEO being given a WFA arrangement) point in the other direction. The question then pertains to what the overall trend looks like? And here, longitudinal data collected by Nick Bloom and his colleagues suggest that the trend of remote work days remain very stable over months. All the data I have seen suggest that we are firmly in the era of hybrid work. The question then becomes how we manage hybrid work effectively and take advantage of the benefits of flexibility while mitigating the challenges. That is the question managers should ask and academics should study. https://lnkd.in/dRtKjU9A

From a close connection to nature to choice-driven learning spaces, the design of Westmark School creates a welcoming environment for students with language-based learning differences. Oriented around a grand Sycamore, its classrooms, patios and pathways seamlessly unite indoors and out for restoration. Inside, its clerestory windows, reading nooks and materials in soothing, muted colorways enhance focus and decrease anxiety for neurodiverse learners. The project captured the attention of Metropolis Magazine’s Editor at Large, Sam Lubell, who toured the school with NBBJ’s Philip Schmunk, Westmark’s Head of School Claudio Koocheck and SWA’s landscape architect, Ying-yu Hung. Describing the warmth of the school’s classrooms, says Philip: “It’s like you’re up in a tree.” https://lnkd.in/eqz8ApSP #architecture #interiors #design #learningspaces #schools #nbbjdesign

NBBJ project architect Tami Chen shares a behind-the-scenes look at the Oregon Health & Science University hospital expansion project ahead of its topping out. The new inpatient tower—the campus’s largest expansion in nearly 20 years—enhances connectivity with the existing hospital while creating a restorative, flexible care environment. Situated on a steep, wooded hillside site, the expansion uses its location to its advantage, with a lower main entrance that provides simple circulation for patients, staff and visitors, a mid-level entrance with access to services, and three bridges that integrate the new building with the existing hospital’s critical flows.

Construction site walk this morning of Oregon Health & Science University IPA in advance of the topping out ceremony. All the hard work the team poured into the design and coordination is paying off. Undoubtedly the view the patients will have is unbeatable. Thank you to all our partners.

A roaring revival! Originally built in 1928, 21 E. State has undergone a series of renovations, with the latest occurring in the late 1990’s. To restore the building’s energy and vitality, the design team transformed the transient lobby into a warm and inviting neighborhood hearth. Backlit wood slats and a custom gradient mosaic evoke the playful movement of fringe from 1920s flapper dresses, while an oversized chandelier and unexpected pops of color reflect the essence of the era. Previously closed off, the lobby now welcomes daylight and views of the state house and its beautiful grounds, with two niches positioned along the street edge to serve as a billboard for the vibrant community within the building. Reimagined retail entrances bracket the space and serve as a further source of activation for the lobby. ValStone Partners I LOTH, Inc #lobby #lobbydesign #nbbjdesign
