The North Las Vegas Veterans Home redefines long-term care with a 128-bed, single story building designed to foster community, comfort, and dignity utilizing the Small House Model Guidelines. The facility is organized into households, neighborhoods, and a central town center, creating a familiar, home-like environment that enhances social interaction and well-being.

The design balances functional efficiency with a strong sense of place, utilizing clear spatial organization and intuitive circulation to support both residents and staff. Proximity between living, social, and care spaces minimizes travel distances, ensuring seamless transitions between public, semi-private, and private zones while maintaining a welcoming atmosphere.

Interior spaces are carefully scaled and proportioned to provide a sense of familiarity and comfort, while exterior connections are reinforced through strategic courtyard placements and shaded outdoor environments. Developed in partnership for the Nevada Department of Veterans Services and Nevada State Public Works Division, the North Las Vegas Veterans Home sets a new benchmark in veteran care, integrating thoughtful healthcare design with an approach that prioritizes well-being, functionality, and adaptability.
