The Abstergo laboratory is a special laboratory built by Abstergo Industries specifically for their Animus project. The Animus device itself is located in a the center of the laboratory, with Warren Vidic's desk located nearby, overlooking the Animus machine. Besides the Animus chamber, this laboratory consists of other rooms and devices such as conference room, bedroom, bathroom, and Animus terminal.
After Memory Block Seven is completed, Cryptic Messages can be seen throughout it in Eagle Vision.[1]
The landscape outside the laboratory is very bright, however, the lab is clearly in an urban environment, surrounded by skyscrapers. The laboratory is found on the 4th floor.[2]
The building appears to be based somewhere in Italy. This is evidenced by Italian words appearing at both the warehouse hideout and in the basement car park, where an Italian sign states the clearance height for cars and a notice marking Vidic's parking spot.[2]
Also, the laboratory is located in the "Research Wing" of the building, as confirmed by one of the guards.[2]
Abstergo Offices
During their escape, Lucy and Desmond exit the laboratory and make a path towards the underground parking lot. Similarly to the lab, the rest of the Abstergo building is decorated in a modern-industrial style with overhead pipes and ventilation clearly visible, but minimalist detail elsewhere. There are lots of servers and computers found, as seen in the laboratory. Several small windows give a glimpse into the world outside the office, showing a terrace garden which surrounds a large part of the building.[1]
As the two Assassins take an elevator down to another floor, the player must traverse through a floor of cubicles. These cubicles are each sealed with glass doors, although nobody is working in them. This may indicate that employees have been evacuated from the area once Abstergo learned that Lucy and Desmond were escaping. Although, September 8th, 2012, does fall on a Saturday. Furthermore, the only workers that the player meets are security guards. The rows of cubicles also contain several Animus machines ( as Desmond asks Lucy if the term is "Animuses" or "Animi"; it was later confirmed to be Animi). A sign on the wall mentions that there are 16 in total on that floor (3rd floor).[2]
