The 170,000-square-foot healthcare facility in Omaha, Neb., was built with input from 150 medical and administrative personnel at Nebraska Medicine’s outpatient facilities.

The design features natural light with fritted windows and sunscreens that moderate heat load while brightening waiting areas and public spaces.
