THE R_EVOLUTION LABORATORIES

A Post-Human Architecture

2014 - 2015

* Greenwich School Of Architecture Technology Prize [winner]*

Lenovo, a Chinese multinational computer technology company, is developing the first synthetic human, and have created the world's first 'Post-Human' research facility located on the Greenwich Peninsula. Here, safely cocooned in an existing gasometer, lies accommodation and laboratories for 12 teams of evolutionary scientists who aim to blur the boundaries between animal and machine, elevating sentient artificial intelligence. At the base of this hollow form lies the 'charged landscape', a watery suburb housing electric eels, whose energy is harnessed to power the science to help accelerate this technology-enabled evolution.
