Science + Technology
Designing leading edge spaces for research and innovation

Forty years of sector experience means we know how to design and deliver fit for purpose solutions, by understanding the science behind the bench and challenging commerciality.
By being consistent in our approach we have accrued an extensive track record of successfully completed projects, often for repeat clients.
Our holistic view to projects creates dynamic innovation spaces, with designs informed by data insights combined with our extensive experience. They seek to integrate people, places and technologies. Our depth of experience means we can deliver end-to-end lab design solutions that are strategically driven, be it specialist lab planning, interior fit-outs or masterplanning and
placemaking.

Design Innovation
It’s our depth of experience that lets us take an influential position in design innovation across the sector, through our presence on the Board of UKSPA and membership of I2SL (International Institute for Sustainable Laboratories) who are committed to supporting transformative action to reduce carbon emissions in the science and research sector. We’re currently leading the establishment of a UK Chapter of the Institute which will be transformative to how we approach sustainable design in the sector.
Our recent joining of the Constructing Science consortium alongside key members of the UK built environment further enhances our ability to help shape best practice design of life science buildings.
That means working with a team who brings years of experience coupled with the latest in design thinking to shape a solution that seeks to exceed the needs of our clients and the end users.
