In beautiful Sitka, AK, nature abounds – from stunning mountains to the Sitka Channel. So, when tasked with designing a hospital on the region’s Japonski Island, our team knew that preserving the majestic landscape was of the utmost priority.     Through geothermal wells, high insulation values and high-performance glazing, the new Mt. Edgecumbe Medical Center will be on target to achieve an impressive energy use intensity (EUI) of 89, which means the hospital will consume considerably less energy than what is typical for healthcare environments.      The result is a hospital literally powered by nature.

The restorative effects of nature are scientifically proven to boost health and work performance. But the great outdoors can be hard to reach from the 32nd story of a high rise.     Not so at smartphone company vivo’s headquarters in Shenzhen, China, where lush green spaces cascade up the building, providing easy access to nature and exercise paths at every level.     Opening next year, the project features an elegant spiral of exterior gardens and alternative workspaces to create a vertical ecosystem that evokes the diverse biomes found in southeast China. #nbbjdesign #corporateoffice #workplacedesign #biophilia
