Fixed Lump SumThe conversion of a civil engineering hydraulic warehouse into a living laboratory.
This was an incredible project for our team to work on. Designed by DesignInc this project involved the conversion of an old engineering shed into a bio-filtration research showcase.
The design was a ‘living scaffold’ which houses a green roof and wall that captures and filters rainwater for a variety of experiments. Would you believe these facilities conduct research on moisture mapping that NASA can provide satellite help with. The piping and water tanks systems are some of the most sophisticated used in modern science.
