Science & Technology

Scientific breakthroughs don’t just happen.

They’re made possible by environments that inspire exploration. Like science itself, the formula for the ideal research lab is always changing, so we bring a holistic perspective— spanning higher education, healthcare and beyond— to envision sustainable facilities that adapt to new technologies and ways of working.

Advancing Health for Life and the Planet

From advancing human health to preserving ecosystems, we create specialized environments that accelerate discovery across the life sciences—from bench to bedside, farm to field, and sea to lab.
