Nestled in Nature
The Science Commons department of the University of Lethbridge has unveiled a new building, designed with a bespoke concept to actively encourage dialogue among researchers, educators, and users, creating a truly unique transdisciplinary environment. The structure integrates flexible research and teaching spaces, advancing synergies across various scientific disciplines. With its transparent architecture, the complex blends seamlessly into the landscape, offering breathtaking views of the Oldman River Valley and inviting exploration of the connection between humanity, nature, and the universe. Horizontal bands of glassfibre reinforced concrete frame the expansive windows, lending the building an elegant aesthetic. Photos: Ditz Fejer
