Three seismic buttresses, each clad with illuminated glass panels featuring botanical and zoological images, enliven an extensive upgrade and renewal to a brutalist 1950s science complex located at the heart of the University of British Columbia Point Grey campus. Glass panels incorporate miniature botanical and zoological images as pixels that aggregate to form larger images to signal the nature of the work that takes place within the facility. The revitalized building houses state-of-the-art laboratories, aquaria, classrooms and administrative offices for the Departments of Botany and Zoology. Research lounges, featuring wood paneling and art glass, are sprinkled along daylit corridors, encouraging informal collaboration between students and faculty.
