Research & Development
Specializing in Environments Poised for a Breakthrough
No matter the industry, research and development facilities must be on the cutting edge of their markets as owners and operators vie for the competitive advantage. With areas open to consumers and other guests, these spaces must impress as well as innovate.
Our holistic approach to design-building facilities leads to streamlined delivery and optimized ROI from top to bottom. We excel at delivering on the things that matter most to R&D clients:
Total understanding of vision and function — we take the time to fully understand the intended use of a facility, incorporating input from a wide range of stakeholders to achieve desired outcomes.
Flexibility — as innovations are made, additional functionality will be required, so our R&D facility designs incorporate ample flexibility for future expansion.
Diverse functionality — R&D facilities require several functions under one roof — from administrative buildings to labs with specialized equipment.
Technology — state-of-the-art is the bare minimum. We design for today’s tech as well as solutions and equipment that haven’t even been invented yet.
Security — from manned facilities to restricted entry, we know how important it is to maintain your competitive edge by protecting trade secrets.
Sustainability — leveraging the latest methods and materials to provide sustainable, energy efficient operations.
