Métis Nation British Columbia Child Care Fort St. John

In a partnership with the Métis Nation of BC (MNBC), PUBLIC is developing a series of mixed-use environments designed to serve and empower its members. In Fort St. John, this collaboration has resulted in a 37-space child care centre deeply rooted in cultural identity. Beyond its functional requirements, the design celebrates Métis heritage through intentional interior palettes and exterior shingle detailing—honoring Indigenous sovereignty and providing a nurturing, culturally resonant environment for the next generation.
