pubs.rights-statement	The project is a major new laboratory building (IMAS) won in an EOI and shortlisting/interview process by John Wardle Architects (JWA) and TERROIR Architects in Association. The project is a major centre for research on the Antarctic for the University of Tasmania and brings together scientific researchers from various leading institutions to collaborate. The building is sited on the Hobart waterfront on a site adjacent to heritage listed waterfront shed buildings. The overall shed form was a clear contextual response that is mute in character, foregrounding instead a series of “third spaces” that mediate between the incredibly strict laboratory requirements and the generic shed form. These ‘third spaces’ are primarily concerned with the internal spaces between laboratories and offices (collaboration spaces) and edge spaces between the interior and exterior (public engagement spaces). The exploration of ‘third spaces’ is a continuing theme in TERROIR’s work and was synergetic with the expertise and strategies deployed by JWA on other projects, resulting in a synergetic collaboration. The results of this approach have been a series of architectural awards at both state level (urban design, public, interiors, education etc) and national level (public buildings).	en_US
