This three-story, 160,000 sq ft facility stands as a testament to innovation and precision, housing 56 laboratories, 164 offices, and 91 modular workstations, facilitating advanced research in materials science and chemical engineering.

Wells contributed to the design and installation of the architectural facade, featuring inlaid brick and integrated sunshade panels. These elements not only enhance the building's aesthetic appeal but also contribute to its energy efficiency and sustainability. The facility has been designed and constructed to be Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold certified and meets strict guidelines for environmental sustainability set by the U.S. Green Buildings Council.

The ORNL Chemical and Materials Sciences Building is more than just a structure; it's a hub for scientific discovery, supporting initiatives like the Center for Fluid Interface Reaction Structure and Transport (FIRST) and the Center for Defect Physics (CDP).

This project underscores our dedication to safety, collaboration, and ingenuity, reflecting our role as partners in building without limits. Together, we are shaping the future of research and innovation.
