Academia SINICA Gene and Protein Research Building

In the floor plan layout, research offices and laboratories are separately arranged. The research offices feature a double-layered floor-to-ceiling glass curtain wall, providing researchers with ample daylight and expansive views. Between the two glass layers is a balcony equipped with planters and green landscaping, offering a restful space for staff. This double-skin façade also helps prevent direct sunlight penetration, reducing air conditioning loads.

The laboratory exterior walls are made of precast concrete with minimal windows to conserve energy. This creates a contrast between the solid, spacious appearance of the labs and the transparent, bright look of the research areas.
