Transformation of Agricultural Laboratory into Modern Clinical Facility

This project involved the complete transformation of an aging 75,000-square-foot agricultural laboratory into a state-of-the-art clinical laboratory in the heart of old town Aiea, Hawaii. The extensive renovation focused on modernizing the facility to meet current healthcare and laboratory standards while preserving the structural integrity of the existing building.

Key aspects of the transformation included:

• Structural Upgrades: Reinforcement of the existing framework to support advanced laboratory equipment and ensure compliance with modern safety regulations.

• Infrastructure Modernization: Installation of high-efficiency HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems tailored to the specific needs of a clinical laboratory environment.

• Interior Redesign: Complete overhaul of laboratory spaces, administrative offices, and support areas to optimize workflow, improve accessibility, and enhance functionality.

• Technology Integration: Implementation of cutting-edge laboratory automation, IT systems, and secure data management solutions.

• Sustainability Features: Incorporation of energy-efficient lighting, water conservation measures, and environmentally friendly materials to align with Hawaii’s commitment to sustainability.

Located in the historic old town of Aiea, this project successfully blended modern innovation with the area’s rich heritage, transforming a former agricultural research facility into a premier clinical laboratory poised to support the healthcare needs of the community for years to come.
