PROJECT:

Project involved the refurbishment and remodelling of 9,100sqm of Laboratories and office / 'Write-Up' areas and collaborative innovative meeting spaces to create a Chemistry Innovation Hub at GSK Ware. These bespoke facilities were created for the Bio Pharm Innovations Team at GSK. This cutting-edge design fitout included all integrated services for both the laboratories and offices within the ceilings, featuring 'plug-in and play' compressed gas, HVAC, elec, etc services points, allowing for the spaces to be reassigned and converted into Labs or office space as required within a short time period with minimal building intervention.
