To create a open-plan of 2,300 square metre, they stripped back all the suspended ceilings\u00a0and partitions within the third-floor Statoil Gallery. The entire space is divided in several zones,\u00a0with visitors free to wander to and fro, encountering a variety of objects on the way.<\/p>\n

The space is described as \u201ca rich landscape\u201d that encourages visitors \u201cto roam guided by what catches their eye, rather than a pre-determined route and narrative\u201d and aims to \u201cencourage visitors to make connections between the different scientific phenomena and to move freely through the gallery\u201d.<\/p>\n

The three slides form part of the Materials zone, so each one is made from something different. One is wood, while another is lined with artificial grass \u2013 demonstrating different properties of friction.\u00a0Beside them, the wall is covered in over 400 disc-shaped material samples.<\/p>\n

Each diferent zone of the gallery is market by an appropriate hanging object.\u00a0Muf commissioned British artist Siobhan Liddell to produce the 13 composite prints that feature in the Mathematics section, and teamed up with Swedish studio Front on the eight-metre-high solar system model.<\/p>\n

Muf describes the project\u00a0as a set of \u201crobust, hardworking spaces which also deliver a sense of grandeur and delight\u201d.\u00a0\u201cThese details are a conscious reaction against the generic bright, wipe clean, panelled architecture of many schools and public spaces,\u201d they said.<\/p>\n
