Frequently asked questions

A dedicated learning space

The Persoonia Lab is located within the Australian PlantBank which has won many awards for its outstanding architecture.

The PlantBank was built with the main purpose being the research and conservation of New South Wales plant species but it also lends itself to a number of other uses including meetings, workshops, training sessions, conferences, corporate dinners and weddings.

The Persoonia Lab is a purpose-built education facility and has everything you need to deliver a seamless learning experience.

The interior finishes of the PlantBank have deliberately been chosen to articulate the different characters of the building - the laboratories and interpretive areas have visual clarity whilst the workspaces are designed with timber, to create a warm and soft environment.

The Persoonia Lab is well-equipped and can be configured to suit your requirements thanks to its modular furniture.
