ULI Nevada Placemaking Award for Excellence – Catalytic Place (2025)

The interiors of the Family Navigation Center are designed to create a calm, welcoming environment that prioritizes dignity and comfort. Drawing from residential cues, the design incorporates warm materials, soft textures, and a soothing color palette to move away from an institutional feel.

Spaces are organized with intuitive wayfinding and gentle transitions, helping families navigate the facility with ease. Counseling rooms and program areas balance privacy and flexibility, while natural light and carefully selected finishes support a sense of well-being. The bridge-housing apartments extend this approach, offering familiar, residential-scale interiors that promote stability and normalcy.

Together, the interiors create a restorative setting where families can feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward.
