Keith Campbell's Laboratory:

The unevenness of the walls, jutting in and out responds to the complexities involved with the cloning technology. The rings in the centre of the laboratory mirror the various stages of cloning, and are of the same structure. However, the fact that some are broken in half shows that although they are ‘genetically identical,’ faults that may occur during the process and exact replicas may not always be created.

The texture around the laboratory represents the organisms and cells. Cloning is more commonly known as, to "derive a population of cells from a single cell." By tiling this texture, I have aimed to depict how one single cell can grown into countless amounts, furthering the notion that cloning is complicated but results in endless possibilities; even to the extent of "improving the quality of life for people with genetic disorders."


This is the ramp from Keith Campbell's laboratory that leads onto the meeting space. The identical pole-like forms make it difficult for Campbell to walk through, confirming the idea that cloning is a difficult process and involves many obstructions.

Meeting Space:

This is the meeting space for both clients, and is a simple room where the two can come together to have a chat. I decided to keep to this simplistic design, as it gives a chance for both clients to get away from the complex problems they have to deal with.


Jacques-Yves Cousteau's Laboratory:

As a lover of nature, Cousteau’s laboratory space was specifically designed in the outside space, to emphasise his strong connection to the outside world and environment. The blue-green glass walls have been chosen as they reflect the qualities of the sea, which was where Cousteau’s research was focused. This space also highlights Cousteau’s growing concern over our environment, accentuated through the strong sense of decay and deterioration on the columns, which seems to scream out the urgency in needing to protect our vulnerable environment.


This is a view of Jacques-Yves Cousteau's ramp that leads to his laboratory. It seems to be fairly dark and mysterious, mirroring the unknown mysteries of the sea. I had tried to create a shelter above, that allows Cousteau to feel a sense of "protection" and whilst walking through.


This is the exterior of Jacques-Yves Cousteau's laboratory. The laboratory lies within the brightly lit blue area, and this was deliberately done to suggest a sense of "protection" of the building itself.
