The metal structure permitted the oversize lengths to meet specification while remaining true against the punishing Florida heat through the exterior windows. The clear finish Solid Quarter Cut Maple for the Staircase required significant hand selection as well as additional engineering to house LED lighting. The solid Ipe Lumber for the benches allowed for creative seating spans within the garden. Although mostly comprised of labs, in the Institute's support spaces and offices wood was used throughout "to create a human scale and warm expression in large portions of the building," notes Kari Botek of the architectural firm. Aesthetics and acoustics were significant in the design considerations and objectives, she continues. "The implementation of wood products in the lobby and interaction space allowed for sound absorptive material to be located behind while the finished look of the product created the desired aesthetic affect. The wood panels in the auditorium added depth and richness to the interior." The multi-level spaces were the most challenging part of the project, says Harrison. "The lobby and interaction spaces were over 50 feet high. The GC had a complex system of scaffolding for all trades which included the high end finish work of Designer's Specialty Millwork. The weight of some fins required several installers to handle the piece while a secondary team connected the part securely to the metal supports and a third team coordinated with electricians and other mechanical trades." Harrison adds, "The strong leadership from DPR moved the project along smoothly and it remained on schedule." fall 2013 I design
