Experimental Zone is a captivating documentation of a remarkable experiment in spatial research conducted at the interdisciplinary laboratory Image Knowledge Gestaltung at the Humboldt University of Berlin. Spanning a four-year period, researchers embarked on a bi-monthly endeavor to reconfigure a sprawling 350-square-meter workspace, accommodating forty scientists. The core focus of this design-based collaborative experiment revolved around the intricate interplay between space and knowledge production. What spatial characteristics are essential for interdisciplinary teams to thrive in their research endeavors?
To answer this question, Experimental Zone employs a rich array of approximately 300 striking and straightforward graphics, presenting the comprehensive findings of the experiment. It sheds light on the spatial dynamics that govern individual and collaborative research, where they intersect, overlap, or merge, unveiling the unique qualities of an architecture that fosters interdisciplinary collaboration.
Furthermore, the experiment's innovative interdisciplinary approach is evident in the book's design, with each of the five chapters and the extensive visual material reflecting publishing traditions in design, architecture, and the humanities. The result is a captivating exploration of the spatial dimensions that shape knowledge production, offering valuable insights for researchers, architects, and scholars alike.
