The new Bristol Myers Squibb offices in Cambridge, MA, showcase a modern and innovative approach to interior architecture and lighting design. The space is defined by its thoughtful use of materials, light, and form, which create an engaging and dynamic environment for employees. Common areas such as the café space are designed with a focus on collaboration and relaxation. The ceiling here is perforated with patterns and complemented by suspended globe lights, offering an airy, spacious feel while maintaining a comfortable, informal setting. In the lab areas, the design prioritizes functionality while maintaining a sleek, clean aesthetic, with bright, even lighting that ensures a focused working environment. The use of light and color across different zones creates distinct moods tailored to various tasks, promoting both innovation and well-being throughout the workplace.
The research lab areas emphasize functionality, precision, and a clean aesthetic, essential for fostering a high-performance research environment. The design incorporates spacious, well-organized workstations, each outfitted with cutting-edge equipment and ample storage to support scientific workflows. Bright, uniform lighting throughout the lab ensures optimal visibility for detailed tasks, while the neutral color palette helps maintain focus and clarity. The integration of visual elements, such as the large scientific graphic along the corridor, adds a creative touch that reflects the company’s focus on science and innovation. This careful attention to both form and function makes the lab spaces not only highly efficient but also engaging for the researchers working within them.
