now thats quite an impressive lab building. and very bostony.
any pics or renders of the interior?
and also this interesting sounding feature below per the website? i’m having trouble picturing it. maybe the landscaping isnt all in but still would like to see more of this place:
The project represents the confluence of nature and the built environment, intended to attract a diverse public. The ground level, a one-acre, all-season indoor/outdoor park, will welcome all — with a building “floating” above it. Outdoor spaces feature large, sweeping groves of trees, cooling the area in summer and shielding it from wind. It will be a comfortable place for gathering, food trucks, and free, small-scale arts-based events. Landscape flows into the building, whose entire eastern end will be a winter garden designed for year-round events and performances — a place like no other in the region. Curved façades minimize shadow, leverage sunlight, mitigate wind, and provide aesthetic variation. Strategic massing minimizes façade, reduces solar gain, and unlocks open space for public use
