Uplift Primary Care

Inspired by Libby’s identity as the City of Eagles and the migration paths that trace their journey across Montana, this design transforms the clinic into a civic haven where caregivers, patients, and the broader Libby community come together to overcome the isolation and inequities of rural healthcare. Decades of asbestos contamination in the area inform a design approach centered on air quality and transparency. Bright, airy volumes, breathable materials, and natural light become architectural expressions of healing and safety.
