Location: Madison, WI Architect: Ballinger Construction: Findorf-Mortenson A.T. Villa Product: Bravo & Basic
A.T. Villa's developed a new system we refer to as Bravo for this beautiful project. Balinger Architects were the lead on the project with Findorff as the general contractor. The concept was to build a facility that would have a 100 year life span.
This was one of the most satisfying projects we have completed. The client simply wanted the best in quality, design and adaptability. Along with the architect we developed the Bravo system.

Situated on a 10-acre campus in the heart of Kansas City, MO, the Stowers Institute for Medical Research is one of the world's most innovative biomedical research institutions. The buildings contain 600,000 square feet of workspace including laboratories, technology centers, scientific support facilities and administrative offices.
Stowers is in the process of a campus wide update to their research lab facilities, renovating a few labs a year to keep disruptions to a minimum to the continual work from their researchers

Location: Houston, TX Architect: Philo Wilke Construction: Linbeck A.T. Villa Product: Ergolab & Basic
A.T. Villa's Ergolab product line was selected to be used at The Life Science Plaza - a 100,000 sf laboratory, multi-story, build out project for University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center - was highly unique in its demand to be designed and constructed within 12 months; it utilized hazardous occupancy chemical storage rooms for the laboratories located on high-rise floors; and the project had to be permitted by the city, an unfamiliar process for the State institution.
Life Science Plaza was one of the fastest installs we have ever seen in a project of this size. The Ergolab benches were completly pre-built off site then rolled into place, leveled and wiped down. On one single day we installed 150 of the 650 benches on the project.
A.T. Villa's Ergolab product line was selected for Empower Pharmacy and their new contract facility in Houston, TX. These two video links is a very well created overview of their amazing facilty and shows some quick glances at the Ergolab benches in the facility.
