In this study, we were asked to create a new type of teaching lab which integrates technology within the lab space. Unlike traditional labs, where the teaching area is separated from the research areas, this small lab space brings all aspects of science learning together. Conceived of as a layering of types, the organization moves […]
Higher Ed
Integrated Science Center
Designed as a concept study for a Boston-area college, the Integrated Science Center looks at fresh ways of designing teaching labs at the STEM level. The renovation brings together collaborative learning spaces with lab spaces and faculty areas, allowing for a seamless flow of learning. Computing lab areas act as hubs for the different disciplines […]
William James Hall 10th Floor Renovation
With commanding views of Harvard’s leafy campus and the skyline of Boston beyond, William James Hall is one of the few high rises on the university campus, and the only building by Minuoru Yamasaki at the University. Designed in 1963, it is may be the first high rise with a tubular framing system to be […]
Study for Advanced Microscopy Suite
4000 square-foot, four laboratory suite for condensed matter physics.
Laboratory for Integrated Science and Engineering
A new construction project comprising 95,000 GSF with a construction cost of $32 Million. The program includes condensed matter Physics and Engineering, nano fabrication, material synthesis, characterization, microscopy and imaging. In addition, a floor of seminar space provides a central hub linked by bridge to other Physics and Engineering buildings. This project was completed while […]
Australian Institute of Nanoscience, School of Physics
LAB was engaged by the Department of Physics and the University to provide peer review services for a new nano science and fabrication building.
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 […]
