pushing boundaries of discovery
As part of a collaborative team with Yale University, a specialized lab was designed for groundbreaking research on the brains of flies. The project required intricate planning to create an isolated structure capable of supporting sensitive equipment that must remain undisturbed by any vibrations. By focusing on carefully insulating the walls and crafting a specialized floor to bear heavy equipment without transmitting vibrations, the team created a space that supports precision and reliability in the data collected. Close collaboration with scientists ensured the lab provided an environment where extended hours of focused, uninterrupted work could take place. This project exemplifies how architectural infrastructure can play a vital role in shaping the future, contributing to the advancement of science and being part of something greater supporting research that pushes the boundaries of knowledge and discovery.
