Designs for science discovery and innovation

Keeping up isn’t the goal; we strive to get ahead. This starts with giving the right people the space to collaborate, the tools to innovate, and the freedom to discover the next generation of advancements.

Our potential is boundless as we work together to find creative design solutions that will make our world a better place. Research and laboratory buildings present unique challenges and our architects, engineers, interior designers, and lab planners are ready and equipped to tackle them thanks to years of building expertise in science and technology facilities. Each one is different, so we’ll work with you to translate your unique needs into a design created exclusively for your program, your campus, or your company.

Through our people, practices, partnerships, and technology, we support the delivery of projects varying in size and complexity, providing professional planning and design services for researchers, students, and the facilities that support them across the globe. We take great care and pride in contributing—even in a small way—to discovery and innovation that may transform our lives one day.

Architecture We create spaces that are engaging and uplifting, that contribute to our collective sense of health and well-being, and encourage the sustainable stewardship of our communities.
Buildings Engineering With decades of innovation and experience under our belts we’re engineering a promising future leveraging the best in building systems, technology, energy analysis, and sustainable performance.
Environmental Services With 3,100 environmental staff in 20 specialties, we know what to do. When we’re gathering data to permit a new project or collaborating on a plan to remediate an old one, our passion for science drives us.
Interior Design As humans, we spend a significant portion of our daily lives inside. We believe our emotional and physical well-being is dramatically impacted by the places where we live, work, and play.
Landscape Architecture Whether it's an urban park, a restored wetland, an athletic complex, or a waterfront destination--through analysis, planning, and design, we create inspired landscapes that reflect context and user needs.
Program & Project Management We know from experience that delivering a complex project without surprises doesn’t mean there won’t be challenges, but our creative approach to planning and controls can head off most problems.
