CRIIAS Research and Development Offices

A new research and development office expansion was proposed for the outdated study rooms at the Natural Sciences Building of the UPR Campus.

The openness of the space is meant to incite more student-teacher interactions.

I also designed the final branding and image of the new CRIIAS branch and logo.
