Project Case Study

The Beatson Institute for Cancer Research won, the Architecture Grand Prix prize at the Scottish Design Awards.  The building, designed by Reiach and Hall Architects, was named Best in Show at the ceremony.  The judges opinion was that the winner was "not only a fantastic building but was for a worthwhile cause and purpose."

Built within a walled garden on the University's garscube Campus in Bearsden, the Beatson Institute accommodates seminar rooms, a lecture theatre, social areas and laboratories with supports spaces for 250 staff.  The Beatson was created to bring together world class medical practitioners and scientists to understand and develop cures for cancer.  To reflect the innovative and inspirational activities that take place, this Award - winning facility provides fully operational office space, breakout areas, specialist laboratory environments and patient care.

WorkSmart Interiors, Optima's Contracting Partner, installed and worked alongside the Principal Contractor to design and install high specification demountable and retractable partitioning. 

Strategic products were selected such as Optima 117, 217 and Revolution 69 to gain as much natural light as possible across every floor thereby, creating a fantastic feeling of warmth and comfort within the building, maximising the use of floor space on both a fixed and temporary basis.
