The research laboratories function around surroundings and provide ample space for interaction among the scientist. The aim of design was to locate various functions in such a manner that it would look complete and humorur in all respects yet and flexibility for further expansion. Inter-linked courtyards surrounded by laboratories and classroom . The maximum natural diffused light was used. The informal spaces(balcony) are provided in front of each laboratories.

Balcony is facing towards courtyard. All the service lines were hidden in perforated ducts. Cetronela was used near courtyard to avoid insects.

Case Study 1:National Centre For Biological Sciences, Bangalore SOUTHERN BLOCK The southern laboratory building is organized such that shared resources/ interactive spaces are located on the northern side. Large deck for outdoor functions, food court, exhibitions and lectures is located under pilotis on first floor. This provides interaction opportunities so critical for the scientific endeavour. The ground Floor has the 200 Seater Lecture Theatre, Spectrometry facility while the second floor has Lecture theatres, Library and Faculty Lounge. The open laboratories are located on the south side separated by a large atrium. The support facilities and services risers surround the labs on three sides connected by a service corridor which ensures unhindered and undisturbed access for maintenance and servicing of labs. the colonnade space was used for exhibition and informal learning . The libaray was facing toward landscape.
