In its general presentation and appearance, UCSF Genentech Hall at Mission Bay is a broadly conventional large-scale biological research laboratory and advanced teaching building. The particular basis of its high energy efficiency is the sophisticated environmental control systems and central heating, ventilating, and cooling plant.

"The building was designed from the inside out — reflecting the architectural design style in which we do science at UCSF. The open lab design, clusters of offices and interaction spaces all encourage communication and interdisciplinary approaches. There are hardly any doors in the labs that can be closed."
— Peter Walter, professor and chair of biochemistry and biostatistics, Genentech Hall executive committee.
