2018 Regional Best Commercial Remodel
over $500,000
High-tech stem cell research laboratory
bathed in natural light and connected to stunning exterior views
resulted from this dramatic revitalization of 5,800 SF of outdated lab
space. Open space planning combined with transparency of interior
glazing create a dynamic set of spaces and a re-imagined arrival
sequence for researchers and visitors. Direct physical and visual
connections between offices, conference rooms and laboratory work areas
enhance collaboration and provide access to daylight. Effective space
planning and adaptable casework allow versatile use over time. Detailed
orchestration of complex MEP systems allow higher ceiling heights near
windows for maximum daylighting.
