Missouri Southern State University
This new $30 million, 40,000-SF facility houses the College of Health Sciences and Welcome Center at Missouri Southern State University. The multidisciplinary program includes space for a simulated hospital with a variety of operating, exam, and care rooms; a radiologic technology lab suite, a cadaver laboratory suite, a virtual reality clinical training center, and a collaborative research laboratory.

Vanderbilt University
A new clinical and pathology laboratory building adds to Vanderbilt University Medical Center鈥檚 impressive collection of facilities, and replaces a 40-year-old undersized facility. 海角社区鈥檚 design provides modern, open laboratories, based on an 11鈥-0鈥 module. The majority of benches will be movable and height-adjustable lab tables with casters which will allow for easy reconfiguration to meet the needs of changing workflows. The programs include chemistry, microbiology, virology, molecular diagnostics, genomics, nucleic acid extraction and anatomical pathology.

Through a layered planning and programming approach, the new lab design incorporates multiple stakeholder needs while implementing a future-proof modular design.
The University of Iowa
Built in the 1970鈥檚, the historically significant Bowen Science Building lacked necessary infrastructure and open layouts. 海角社区鈥檚 design accommodates changing research investigators鈥 space needs and advances in equipment and technology while providing space for interaction between investigators and teams. The new layout optimizes flow through the labs to increase visibility, reduce disruption, and enhance safety and security. The renovated space includes functional laboratory modules and a dedicated tissue culture room for each investigator.

The lab design allows space for 18 PIs and includes adaptable open wet lab space, tissue culture rooms, fume hood alcoves, autoclaves, microscopy rooms, ULT freezer rooms and flex labs for specialized functions.
The Ohio State University Biomedical and Materials Engineering Complex Phase 2
The second phase of Ohio State鈥檚 Biomedical and Materials Engineering Complex project is a $94.3 million project that maximizes collaborative learning and research. It will be the home of first-year engineering courses, a makerspace, biomedical and advanced materials R&D, and engaging K-12 STEM programs.
