Fast Company Names NBBJ One of the World's Most Innovative Architecture Firms
For the fourth time, Fast Company has named NBBJ one of the world’s most innovative architecture firms. Ranked #3 in 2024, this year’s list covers 58 industries, from advertising to workplace to architecture. The list is a definitive chronicle of the most novel, innovative ideas transforming business and society today.
While this ranking endorses NBBJ’s work globally, it is especially close to our hearts because of the magazine’s focus on our design of the Montage Health Ohana Campus for Behavioral Health. Ohana, like many other healthcare projects we design, is a model for leveraging buildings as part of the therapeutic process.
As Dr. Susan Swick, MD, Medical Director of Ohana said, “The building itself becomes an element of our prevention program. It creates a sense of possibility, of hope, and the ways in which mental health must be built. Mental illness must be treated and its curable. But it must be built. The building itself is a reminder, a promise, and a facilitator.”
