Heritage Health and Housing Headquarters		This optimistic agency and its admirable workers provide housing and social services for ex-convicts battling addiction and mental health challenges. To create an inviting environment both externally and internally, the building’s façade is embellished by a colorful patchwork installation by artist Nathan Joseph and the tranquil interior is canvassed in a soothing cream color. Four strategically placed light shafts bring focused light to all corners of the landlocked interior and turn the entire building into an abstract sundial that telegraphs the progression of the sun across the sky as the light circles around the translucent enclosures.
