Fusion

Hayran Ismihan Elif

The main idea for the design project “Fusion“ is creating a geometry combining organic and inorganic aspects of form. The laboratories are covered with glass on the inside in order to let visitors observe the scientists at work.

The project features two seperate laboratories for samples from asteroids and the Moon (non-bio contaminated facility) and for samples from Mars (bio contaminated). The laboratories include areas for sample handling and storage. There is also an office section for researchers, an exhibiton area, a multi-media library and a cafeteria.

The planing has been undertaken in collaboration with scientists from the EURO-CARES group. The EUROCARES is funded by the European Comission and their mission is creating a roadmap for an European sample return curation facility which receives and curates samples returned from Asteroids, the Moon and Mars.
