UT Environments I

Darwin's space:

For this initial design, the idea is of a cave/rock (heart of stone) being held afloat by a "high-tech" room (science). The space is quite bland, and so tries to capture the notion of "no desires", forcing the scientist to concentrate on "doing science"

Nightingale's space:

The principle behind the space for Nightingale is Fear - of darkness, of heights, and of the unknown. Voids and lighting were arranged to create areas of darkness and mystery. A long, narrow flight of stairs leads one down to the depths of the central core.
