Mathias Lab
Edgewater, MD

This $29M project includes a new 94,000 sf laboratory addition to the existing Mathias Lab building.  EwingCole performed a facilities assessment of the existing Mathias Lab building, which confirmed the need for expansion to accommodate increased and more efficient research activities in keeping with their mission.  The existing building required select renovation including the relocation or “rezoning” of numerous labs and offices, and the creation of storage facilities.  Designers used Laboratories for the 21st Century (Labs21) design guidelines for project development.  The overall project design includes features and systems to earn a minimum certification of LEED Gold.

 
“EwingCole was instrumental in helping us achieve a truly holistic and strategic vision for our site. Under the leadership of Howard Skoke, the team was completely on target and was able to incorporate virtually all of our objectives into the capital plan. When others look back at our efforts 20 years from now, they will say ‘we got it right’.”

Headquarters
Silver Spring, MD

EwingCole provided architecture, engineering and interior design services for United Therapeutics’ new Class A headquarters, consisting of approximately 100,000 SF.  In order to provide the necessary degree of improvement, the building includes two levels of below grade parking and support spaces with seven additional floors of multi-use spaces and offices.  The facility is intended to enhance UT’s business objectives while providing forward thinking design and flexible expansion options.

 
“While exceptional ratings for all performance areas may be rare, EwingCole’s team of professionals made this project happen within the timeframe specified. The project was a great collaborative effort and has resulted in a Class A project.  EwingCole’s responsiveness to this project has resulted in several additional projects throughout the world.  EwingCole’s one stop, no drama, exceptional work ethic has created a great working relationship within United Therapeutics and with outside consultants.”

Technology & Engineering Development Facility (TEDF)
Newport News, VA

This $51M project includes the design of a new 70,000 SF building, the renovation of the 88,900 SF existing Test Lab Building 58, and a 30,000 SF addition to Building 58.  EwingCole began by performing a facility conditions assessment.  This assessment was followed by organized collaborative, interactive workshops to understand work flow.  The facility was designed to optimize and standardize the process flow of people, products, waste, supplies, and information through the facility.  Jefferson Lab achieved LEED Gold certification by using a ground source hybrid geothermal well field, dedicated outdoor air energy recovery units, solar heating of domestic hot water, and demand control ventilation.

 
“In all my years of reviewing National Lab Projects, I have never seen a project that so transformed a site and operations as the JLab TEDF project and congratulations to EwingCole for proposing the concept and JLab for accepting it.”
