This project involved the development of an existing site together with the acquisition & development of additional laboratory & office space.
The overall layout & positioning of the laboratories was carefully considered to ensure that the dynamic relationship between the different users and the specialist needs of each laboratory work together.

The aim of the office upgrade was to create a fresh, contemporary and pleasant working environment by careful use of restrained neutral tones as background, with carefully chosen strong accent colours to add interest and an element of sophistication. Furniture & storage was chosen to compliment and strengthen the overall styling.

The project involved the construction of a new 900m2 biochemistry laboratory on Level 3 of Latrobe University's Physical Sciences Facility.
