Horizon I Research Building

University of South Carolina

The 125,000 SF Horizon I Research Facility has recently been completed. This five story structure will house research laboratories and offices for researchers from various academic disciplines who are focused on "Next Energy" research. The programming efforts by WTSL, SSOE, and SST Planners created a document which was the starting point for the design of the new facility. After analyzing the space and utility needs of the potential building research tenants, SST Planners has been able to develop seven laboratory types which can serve all of the buildings diverse users. WTSL completed this project in the fall of 2008. Currently in different phases of construction are three floors of laboratories, offices and associated support spaces.
