Industrial buildings require significant upfront and ongoing resources to deliver and operate. Good design and the incorporation of best practice sustainability initiatives can assist to minimise these impacts on the environment, and their economic sustainability.
Laboratories are a complex building activity with many intricate yet conflicting requirements presenting unique design problems and requiring innovative design solutions.
Whether in a Pharmaceutical clean room, in a University PC2 Lab, or in a High School Chemistry Laboratory ARCH takes a collaborative approach with engineers and scientists to refine designs to the most functional and safe interpretation of the brief. A close relationship between architect, client, users and sub-consultants is paramount.
We understand that a laboratory is not just a laboratory, but also a workplace and we incorporate welcoming and functional environments for staff health & wellbeing with design details that don't compromise compliance requirements.
