Sustainable Laboratory Design
A pioneer in sustainable design

For twenty-five years, Bonnie Blake-Drucker has been an innovator in her field: a pioneer in the design of sustainable, accessible, and work-enhancing scientific and medical laboratories for worldrenowned researchers. She has earned a national reputation for the design of exceptional, universally accessible classroom laboratories and has dedicated her practice to the creation of sustainable built environments in a practice arena laboratory design, especially renovations not often known for green architecture.


Inherent sustainability is key to Blake-Drucker’s work. Her designs integrate flexibility for multiple users and ease of maintenance. Informed by her graduate study in psychology, her architecture incorporates daylight and outdoor views (rare for this project type) and excellent acoustics, essential for dense work environments. It thus encourages productivity,resulting in fewer changes over the life of the space and minimizing or avoiding the expense and disruption of the re-renovation cycle. Clients affirm that her design strategies have persuaded researchers to stay at their labs.
