Centret består af en række enheder. det
er transparent og imødekommende med
optimalt overblik over igangværende
projekter. mellemrummet mellem enhederne
indeholder de nære sociale rum og den nære
natur. / the centre consists of a number
of units. it is transparent and welcoming
and gives an optimum overview of current
projects. the interspace between the units
contains rooms for social interaction as well
as nature.
Several ‘workstations’ can be put together in the ‘arena’ like a fractal
structure, which begins with the tiniest atoms that through mutation
become one large, living organism. The ‘arena’, combined with
support functions and laboratories, becomes a ‘unit’, which in turn
becomes a ‘centre’ and then an entire ‘university’.
The model should be used from the bottom up and a similar process
should be completed from the top down in which general functions
as well as urban and architectural considerations are outlined. The
two models should subsequently be combined.
01 the workstation
It should be possible to adapt the individual workstation in the
laboratory to the changing needs and physiology of the individual
researcher or student. In addition to a height-adjustable desk, the
workstation consists of shared basic equipment (fume cupboards,
scales, etc.). The workstation is allocated to a specific subject area
and should be fitted out accordingly.
Traditionally, the reconstruction or redesign of a laboratory begins
with a project involving the individual building components:
installations, furniture and surfaces. Each laboratory is fitted out in
accordance with the specific wishes of the users. The need for more
versatile use and rapid conversion favours a departure from the
traditional subject-based planning to be replaced by work aimed at
configuring consistent equipment and installation systems, the socalled
Plug and Play systems.
02 the arena
Projects can be planned on a multidisciplinary basis, but discoveries

can also happen more or less accidentally when researchers with
different backgrounds inspire each other and discover new perspectives.
The arena is a central place in the research unit where new knowledge
is created and shared with others. In the past, research took
place in small, closed laboratories where the individual researcher
carefully guarded his project. The laboratories of the future will consist
of an arena where researchers work and display their knowledge
and experiments. Here, they can expect to receive comments and
suggestions for changes, new approaches or new projects on an ongoing
basis. Research will become transparent.
Results must be exhibited and communicated. An arena can, for
instance, comprise a mock set-up behind glass walls. The mock set-up
must remain in place during the six months’ duration of the research
project. Not far from the mock set-up, a group of researchers are having
a video conference with participants in Japan and the USA.
The arena can be used by researchers and students from different
subject areas. It is fitted out with the described laboratory furniture,
special set-ups or specialised and expensive equipment that can be
used by many different researchers, and also has room for social
gatherings. The room may be large and open or it may be sub-divided
for different processes, typically shielded by glass walls.
It should be possible to quickly clear the arena or restructure it for
new projects. The arena is therefore also based on the Plug and Play
principle in which cables link basic installations to connection
points.
