Spaceworks Architectural Interiors, a Boston-based firm providing architectural interior products such as floors, walls, and glass fronts, recently completed a project for the new Life Sciences facility at UMASS Amherst. The project is part of a 5-year capital improvements plan. Spaceworks completed more than 100 offices in 2 phases as part of this project. Space works also completed work at Albert Shermen Center at UMASS Medical Center in Worcester.

The project features Spaceworks' new glass front and door designs, with enhanced acoustics, aesthetics, and functionality in the doors and hardware.
