The New Architecture of Science explores how the architecture of
advanced nanoscience labs affects the way scientists think, conduct
experiments, interact and collaborate. The unique design of the
National Graphene Institute in Manchester, UK sheds light on the
new generation of 21st century science laboratories. Weaving
together two tales of this building, lead scientist and one of the
designers, Kostya Novoselov, and architectural anthropologist,
Albena Yaneva, combine an analysis of its distinctive design
features with ethnographic observation of the practices of
scientists, facility managers, technicians, administrators and
house service staff. Capturing simultaneously the complex technical
infrastructure and the variability of human experiences that it
facilitates, contemporary laboratory buildings are shown to be
vital settings for the active shaping of new research habits and
ways of thinking, ultimately leading to discovery and
socio-technical innovations.Related Link(s)
