Deakin University Shared Laboratories

This series of advanced chemical and biological research laboratories, offices and breakout areas completes an ongoing campus refurbishment program begun by DesignInc in 2004. Labs are designed as flexible modules with services reticulated and suspended above benches to allow equipment and furniture to be rearranged according to researchers’ needs. The labs are also designed to encourage multi-disciplinary collaboration. The graphic black-and-white scheme has splashes of saturated colour to enliven the spaces.
