Innovative Genomics Institute Building Office to Laboratory Space Conversion

Taylor Design was brought in to reimagine and convert existing office suites on the UC Berkeley campus into world-class research labs for the Innovative Genomics Institute (IGI). Designed for a Nobel Laureate, the IGI space is a combination of wet laboratories and support spaces to encourage multidisciplinary collaboration among researchers focusing on CRISPR/RNA research. Other programming elements included writeup space, equipment corridor, BSL2 tissue culture rooms, open workspace, and conference rooms. To celebrate the innovative work that happens inside the lab, a glass wall, etched with genetic sequencing, is prominently displayed at the entrance.
