Custom Furniture Solutions Help Bring Cutting-Edge Learning Spaces to Life
Unisource Solutions was proud to be invited to the ribbon-cutting and open house for Santa Monica College's impressive new Math and Science Building. The event celebrated not just a state-of-the-art facility, but the collaborative effort that brought it to fruition, including Unisource Solution's significant role in outfitting the building with furniture solutions that meet the unique demands of modern lab environments.
Representing Unisource at the celebration were Jenna Rael, Charity Freiberg, and Susan Soe, the dedicated account manager who shepherded this project from concept to completion.
Furnishing Innovation
The Unisource team delivered comprehensive furniture solutions throughout the building, combining carefully selected pieces with custom-built elements designed specifically for the facility's specialized needs. We provide tailored solutions for the lab spaces with custom furniture from Platform.
Meeting the Challenge: Custom Storage for Lab Classrooms
Santa Monica College's new lab classrooms presented unique spatial challenges. Each lab—approximately double the size of a standard conference room—required storage systems that could accommodate scientific models of varying dimensions while maintaining visual consistency with existing casework and fixtures.
Platform by Unisource Solutions collaborated closely with the college to design, manufacture, and install custom storage systems that addressed several critical priorities:
- Precision Engineering: Exact measurements were essential to maximize limited space while ensuring each cabinet could house specific scientific models
- Lab-Grade Durability: Materials were selected to withstand the demands of daily lab use while maintaining their appearance and functionality
- Safety and Usability: Thoughtful design details ensured that storage solutions kept valuable instructional tools both protected and easily accessible
Transforming Learning Environments
Delivered on schedule before the fall semester, Platform's custom cabinetry transformed four lab classrooms into efficient, durable, and inspiring learning spaces. Faculty now have organized systems that protect valuable scientific models and instructional tools while keeping them readily at hand. Students benefit from a more structured, accessible environment that supports their educational experience.
The successful completion of this project demonstrates Unisource Solutions' commitment to understanding client needs and delivering solutions that go beyond standard offerings. When the situation calls for it, their Platform division stands ready to design and build furniture that meets even the most specialized requirements.
Congratulations to Santa Monica College on their remarkable new facility, and to everyone who contributed to making it a reality. Unisource Solutions looks forward to seeing how these spaces inspire the next generation of scientists and mathematicians.
