NBBJ

NBBJ is a global architecture and design firm founded in 1943 and headquartered in Seattle, with a practice weighted toward healthcare, science, technology, and workplace design. The firm designed OHSU’s Vista Pavilion, the 14-story cancer and inpatient tower on Portland’s Marquam Hill, and it has shaped hospitals, research buildings, and corporate campuses for clients across the country. NBBJ leans on evidence-based design, using research on how buildings affect health, focus, and recovery to drive plan decisions rather than styling. Its healthcare portfolio has made it a frequent choice for academic medical centers weighing complex, phased expansions on constrained urban campuses.
