Transforming space to support healing.

Our team worked with Memorial Community Hospital & Health System Blair, NE to turn underutilized hospital space into a centralized rehabilitation destination.

The new department includes a therapy gym, four exam rooms, an Activities of Daily Living (ADL) kitchen, aquatic therapy pool, staff workroom, patient reception and waiting areas, and specialized rehabilitation spaces. A walking track serves as the focal point of the department, incorporating multiple surface types including turf, rubberized flooring, and cobblestone textures to simulate real-world walking conditions and support diverse therapeutic goals.

The addition of aquatic therapy significantly expanded services available to the local community, allowing patients to receive specialized rehabilitation treatments closer to home.

With improved patient flow, staff visibility, and service capacity, the project creates an engaging, healing environment that supports recovery, independence, and wellness.

Construction is progressing at The Henry in Atlanta with demolition making way for Tower 2! As Tower I nears full height, the next phase is already underway.

If you look closely at the bottom of the photo, you'll spot equipment carefully cutting away a portion of the existing parking garage to make room for Tower 2. It's always exciting to see another phase of a project begin to take shape.

We can't wait to watch this one continue to rise!

The first-year housing experience for students sets the bar for the rest of their time on campus. Postive student outcomes start with engaged communities. At Creighton University, Graves Hall is designed to help shape social networks, encourage interaction and make students feel included.

Multifunctional living-learning spaces offer opportunites to gather outside of the classroom. With a dedicated amenity-rich courtyard complete with fire pits, convertable green space, and ample seating, students can stay connected outdoors. Activated both day and night, the residence hall and creates a greater connection to campus.

At Holland Basham, we believe great design brings people together. We create spaces that foster connection, inclusivity, and a true sense of belonging enriching the communities they serve.
That commitment comes to life through the work of Davielle Phillips, whose passion for community-centered design continues to inspire our team. Recently, Davielle helped to lead the transformation of the North Omaha Visitors Center and continues his impact with the Bryant Resource Center, currently under construction, and future Great Plains Black History Museum.

Meet our summer interns!
It's hard to believe we're already halfway through the summer. This crew has packed a lot into the first half, from team bonding at the zoo and fully embracing an awkward JCPenney photo shoot to soaking up the excitement of the College World Series. We can't wait to see what the rest of the summer has in store. Grateful for the future generation of designers!
