Celebrating National Science Week

Posted on Aug 20, 2021

August marks National Science Week, Australia’s annual celebration of science and technology. Featuring over 1000 events, science week includes in-person and online events, virtual tours, and DIY science from universities, schools, research institutions, libraries, museums and science centres across Australia.

 

As national specialists in the design of science, greenhouse, specialist laboratory and storage facilities, we’ve completed more than 50 projects for the science, education and technology sectors over the past 21 years.

 

As architects and designers, we play an important role in creating spaces that support next-generation research and education. Notable projects include the Australian Grains Genebank, one of the most important genetic banks in Australia, The University of Adelaide Plant Accelerator, which is Australia’s largest research greenhouse and the Factory of the Future at Swinburne University, an important engineering hub for education and research into digital manufacturing processes. ⁠

 

Recent projects include the high-tech New Science Research Facility for the University of Technology Sydney, a state-of-the-art research facility offering world-class specialist labs, and the new purpose-built research and education Biodiversity Facility currently under construction for Flinders University in Adelaide.
