This facility with its distinctive 130meter long glass curtain wall facade, is a research facility within the International Research & Exchange University Village Scheme.
The facility is designed for flexibility to adopt to changes in research themes or changing personnel. The new technology such as building systems housed within the double skin facade, mechanical voids, double slab piping chambers are abundantly employed throughout to realize a prototype research facility with extremely high flexibility.

In addition, clean energy and conservation are not forgotten with large scale solar panel systems and double skin installations.
