..BUT WHAT IS
ON-CARPET vs OFF-CARPET?

Recent developments in life sciences and tech industries emphasize the importance of integrating laboratory spaces with traditional office environments, enhancing efficiencies and attracting talent. The outdated practice of dark, cluttered, and isolated labs away from traditional office floors has shifted towards inclusive workspaces where labs are seamlessly integrated near traditional office areas, featuring natural light and collaborative spaces. This shift revolves around “on-carpet” (office) versus “off-carpet” (lab) areas, with transitionary spaces serving as meeting points for collaboration. With over 40 years of experience, Formaspace specializes in creating integrated lab environments that blend functionality with office comfort and practicality, fostering collaboration and innovation.
