Bioengineering Center Renovation
LAB designed the renovations for the Bioengineering Institute in the Life Sciences Bioengineering Center at WPI’s Gateway Campus. The project includes wet and dry laboratories for biological research, Bio MEMS and advanced microscopy. By strategically placing an open lab and open office it became possible to eliminate hallways and to use the aisles within the open spaces to access doorways and egress points. The more efficient plan allowed WPI to house three additional faculty labs in the space — nearly doubling their original expectations.
