Home in the Service of Science is inspired by a year of conversations with scientists, cleaners, technicians, receptionists, security guards and the catering staff at the LMB, investigating scientific research and dialogue with everyday life. The residency includes a new imaginative architectural structure built by the artists within the vast atrium of the LMB. As a conceptual ‘home’ it comprises a shed of curiosities, a space under the stairs, a parlour, a corridor and a study, and acts as the ‘home’ of the residency.
