PROMEGA BIOMEDICAL CAMPUS
IA Award of Merit
Daily Reporter’s Top Projects Award
This biomedical manufacturing facility wanted their training retreat to emphasize a philosophy of discovery. Curved architecture, wood ceilings, and Glulam beams create warm lantern-like architecture with wood ceilings. The atrium includes a “Living Wall” of 42 plant varieties adjoining a monumental staircase with integrated handrail illumination. Columns on both levels embrace custom brackets for LED uplighting and downlighting to accent the laminated timber
Breakout spaces allow employees to share ideas in a relaxed, residential setting. Textured pools are created with random glass downlights. Circular decorative LED pendants below floating forms add intimacy, with the ceiling warmth enhanced from hidden uplights. A health & exercise room lit by suspended programmable-color LED tiles reinforce this building’s usage of both work & play. Layers of warm LED spots, grazers, and floods from unusual places create an intriguing composition of increased warmth and interest while accentuating the organic architecture.
