CSLSC Drug Discovery Laboratory
A laboratory interior precedent showcasing efficient modular casework, integrated fume hood banks, and neatly organized overhead mechanical services.
- What we like about this project
- A dedicated rack-mounted drying pegboard integrated into the side wood paneling of the casework island.

- Geometry
- Open-plan laboratory floor with modular casework islands arranged below suspended soffits and an exposed painted ceiling plenum.
- Structural guess
- Steel frame with suspended ceiling plenum for mechanical and electrical routing.
- Spatial scale
- Standard institutional laboratory scale with high ceilings to accommodate mechanical services.
- Lighting
- Bright ambient overhead illumination from recessed linear fixtures integrated into floating acoustic and light soffits, complemented by daylight from a side window wall.
- Atmosphere
- Sterile, crisp, and high-tech with warm wood accents softening the clinical white surfaces.
- Environmental context
- Indoor laboratory facility with exterior green landscape visible through side glazing.
- Spatial experience
- The space feels clean, bright, and organized, with deep sightlines across modular lab benches and integrated fume hood assemblies.
- Composition rhythm
- Repeating vertical lab rack uprights and casework drawer modules create a steady horizontal and vertical grid.
