In recent years, the demand for lab space and life science work environments has surged, leading to the emergence of vibrant life-sciences ecosystems like Waltham, Massachusetts. With premiere, hospitality-driven office space and laboratory facilities, biomedical research companies in Waltham are well positioned to attract exceptional talent from nearby universities in the Boston and Cambridge area.
ElevateBio enlisted Gensler to design a flexible, forward-thinking workspace and lab at 225 Wyman, a life-sciences development in Waltham. We designed the space to support the company’s people, mission, and culture of innovation. Seamless plug-and-play technology and tools combined with design elements such as the oversized windows that create connection between lab and office help set the overall tone of the space as a collaborative workplace that encourages the cross-pollination of new ideas.
ElevateBio has become a workplace and life science lab that sparks passion and fuels pride in the people that work there. By showcasing the laboratories both internally and externally, the company’s employees gain greater recognition for their work, as well as a broader sense of the organization’s culture and common purpose. Studies have identified that organizational pride — including recognition of mastery, accomplishment, and appreciation by others — is strongly related to organizational commitment.
