Chemistry, physics, and biology workshops at the "New School" are conducted in these laboratories. Here, all the equipment for safe and visually compelling experiments is available. The communication systems are integrated through the intelligent ceiling system from the German company Hohenloher. It provides access to water, electricity, low currents, and compressed air from any point in the classroom. All work surfaces are resistant to the effects of chemical reagents and thermal damage. Safety is paramount: in case of minimal risk, the system automatically disables access to the communications. The laboratory was designed by EdDesign LLC.
