Medical Office Designs for Offices and Laboratories
The life sciences industry is rapidly growing in Southern California, requiring advanced medical office designs to accommodate the needs of employees, patients, researchers, and scientists. Offices and laboratories are reconfiguring their spaces through new builds and redesigns to best serve their communities. The implementation of new technology, flexible furniture, and smarter layouts is the central focus for life sciences and healthcare optimization.
bkm OfficeWorks has revamped our Life Sciences division to support the growing changes in the medical industry. We now provide both on- and off-carpet laboratory and medical office solutions to streamline employee and client practices. As a single vendor with decades of expertise, we can work with you on all facets of your workspaces: furniture, labs, and technology, including audio-visual and cabling. We’ve assembled an experienced team dedicated to lab projects, complete with designers, project managers, and account support.
We create your workspace with a holistic approach, becoming the one-stop shop for medical office interior designs. We are the first in our industry to pursue this side of the life sciences and healthcare furnishing business in conjunction with our existing workplace, medical, and educational furniture capabilities. We offer consulting, medical office layout designs, San Diego office furniture, and a 800 sq. ft. showroom.

How bkm Supports Cutting-Edge Life Sciences Work
Life sciences professionals spend their days delving into the nature of life itself and unraveling its many mysteries. This delicate, essential work has only grown in relevance following the global pandemic. Thousands of health sciences professionals work in Southern California laboratories—and working remotely is not an option.
bkm OfficeWorks creates customized solutions for life sciences professionals representative of your culture, work ethic, and a desire to create in ways that are both safe and innovative. No two life science companies are alike; that’s why we specialize in understanding how you work within your space.
The life sciences industry is a thriving ecosystem in San Diego, driving billions in venture capital funding and economic revenue—not to mention significant advances in the battle against dangerous diseases such as COVID-19.
We are the third-largest life sciences cluster in the country, following Boston and San Francisco. Together these cities accounted for 70 percent of all venture capital investment in 2019. Commercial real estate figures tell a similar story: more than 2.7 million square feet have been added since the beginning of 2016 and 363,000 sq. ft. are currently under construction for life sciences enterprises.
“In total, San Diego’s life science industry generates about $41 billion in economic activity and helps to support 175,000 jobs.” Biocom
